Our club was formed in 1891, but how did the club become Darlington Harriers? Who were the people that founded the club? Read about some of the great athletes that have graced our club, Olympians George Butterfield, Robert Hawkey and Joy Grieveson. Read about Fred Wyers who competed in the 1958 Commonwealth Games and other notable athletes such as Bob Stockdale, William Wylie, Ian Barnes, Paul Harker, Lewis Moses, Kieran Maxwell who have graced our club over the years and let’s not forget all the current members. The club is steeped in the town’s history from basic beginnings to current day and these pages will be updated daily as I trawl through the British Newspaper Archives.
Get Involved
We want to see the club colours at all of our events, especially team events such as relays, National, Northern or North-Eastern where we can get together as a group, support each other and make these events a social occasion. So let me introduce you to our Senior Club Captains.
In addition to athletes, we are always looking for volunteers to support club and local events so please reach out to Sarah Johnson as your first point of contact if you can support in any way shape or form. Thank you! #UTH
Race Result
JResults from Saturdays’s NEHL event in Anwick. Well done everyone. Full results can be found here
The weekend also saw the 2nd Middlesboro half marathon take place, a race starting in Centre Square, outside the Town Hall and MIMA gallery, before the course heads out through Albert Park, passing the home of Middlesbrough FC at Riverside Stadium, before looping around the docks to finish back in Centre Square. Some terrific performances right across the board with some personal records smashed and even a club record broken in the form of Helen Stephenson’s 1:31:44 as a F45 runner. Catherine Anderson took 1st place in her age category to prove a very successful day for many of our athletes. Amazing running by you all. Full results can be found here
