Race on a fast, flat and fully road‑closed course starting and finishing on the iconic Monkton Stadium track. This event is perfect for PB chasers, first‑timers and club runners, with great support from Jarrow & Hebburn AC and a brilliant community atmosphere.

The 10k route heads out from the stadium onto closed local roads, with clear signage and friendly marshals supporting you throughout. The course has been designed with speed and simplicity in mind, giving you the best chance to run your strongest race.

Enjoy a stadium finish, a lively event village and plenty of encouragement from start to finish. Junior races take place later in the morning, making this a great day out for runners of all ages.

Offering the t‑shirt as an optional extra helps us keep entry costs lower for runners who prefer not to include merchandise.

Event Information

The Jarrow 10k route is a fast, flat and fully road‑closed course starting and finishing on the Monkton Stadium track. The route heads out onto closed local roads around Jarrow, offering smooth running surfaces and a simple layout designed for speed.

Marshals are positioned throughout the course, with clear distance markers and directional signage to keep you on the correct route. Please follow marshal instructions at all times, especially at any points where the course narrows or runners merge.

Address

Monkton Stadium, Jarrow, NE32 5NJ

Getting There

Metro

Fellgate and Jarrow Metro stations are both a short walk from the stadium, making them the easiest way to reach the event. Fellgate is around 10 minutes on foot, with Jarrow roughly 15 minutes.

Buses

Jarrow Interchange offers several bus routes to the event. Services will run on diverted routes during the road closures, with temporary stops in place where needed.

Parking

Access to Monkton Stadium and Monkton Village will be restricted during the event, with entry limited to local residents, church congregations, stadium gym users (with a valid pass) and event staff. These controls are in place to allow runners to move safely in and out of the stadium as part of the route.

There is no parking at Monkton Stadium for runners, and stadium parking is reserved for Blue Badge holders, event staff and gym pass holders. Parking marshals will guide vehicles away from Monkton Village to prevent congestion, directing cars to the Stadium overflow car parks behind the venue accessed via Luke’s Lane and to the extensive legal on‑street and estate parking nearby. Please respect resident access in these areas.

A large public car park is also available at Jarrow Viking Centre (Metro/Bus interchange), around a 15‑minute walk from the stadium.

Baggage

An informal bag drop is located within the event village. Your baggage tag is attached to your race number — tear off the strip, attach it to your bag and leave it in the bag‑drop marquee. Collect it after your race.

Toilets

Toilets are located within the event village — follow the signs. Queues can build in the final half hour before the start, so please plan ahead.

Water & Refreshments

A water station is positioned around the course at approximately 5k, with bottled water available at the finish. We recommend staying hydrated in the lead‑up to the event.

Warm-Up & Race Start

A group warm‑up will take place 15 minutes before the B-Race race, immediately after the A-Race start. After this, estimated finish times will be called to help all runners line up safely and smoothly before the start.

Spectators are very welcome. We recommend staying within the stadium and event village, where you can see the start, finish and enjoy the atmosphere throughout the event.

Best Places To Watch

Spectators can enjoy the atmosphere in the Event Village at Monkton Stadium, where you can see runners at the start and finish. You can also head out onto the course to cheer runners along the route.

With this 2-lap course, runners pass spectators multiple times on each lap, creating a great atmosphere.

Accessibility

Spectators are welcome at all our events, with accessible viewing areas and support available for anyone who may need it. Please speak to a member of the team on arrival if you require assistance.

Dogs

Dogs are welcome in public areas of the venue but must stay on a lead and under control at all times. Within Monkton Stadium itself, we ask that dogs are not brought inside, except for registered assistance dogs.

These roads close on race day to keep runners safe. Please plan ahead. Tap a highlighted road on the map for its closure times, or type your postcode into the map to see what's shut near you.
