Tidal Trails 8K Entry, Date & Race Guide

The South Shields Tidal Trails 8KM Trail Run takes place on coastal trails, combining off-road running with views of the surrounding shoreline. The route follows natural trail terrain and offers a different experience from a traditional road race, with changing surfaces and coastal scenery forming a key part of the challenge.

As part of a wider event programme, runners finish within an event village that acts as the hub for the day. The combination of trail running and a coastal setting gives the race a distinctive character, while the 8km distance provides a shorter off-road option for runners looking to explore trail racing in a race environment.
