New Year's Day 2012 - 3 mi / 1020' (AS)

Mild and dry conditions greeted the runners for this year's Hillforts and Headaches Race.
Another record turnout of 84 beating last years 76, indicating an upward trend in numbers
for fell running.
About one third of the field from NFR and other runners from as far afield as St. Albans,
Woolacombe and Darlington.
The start of the route was altered due to roadworks on the main bridge and instead went
over the footbridge and up the road as in the Simonside Cairns race.
NFR filled the first 6 places with Phil Sanderson claiming victory ahead of Will Horsley
and Lee Bennett.
Alison Dargie from Elswick came home first for the ladies with NFR's Karen Robertson not
far behind.
Thanks to The Newcastle House Hotel for use of the venue and providing refreshments.
All monies raised in recent races will be shared between The National Parks Mountain
Rescue Team and The Great North Air Ambulance.
