Flicking through this month’s copy of AW and there in the pages was a familiar if somewhat younger face of a runner I recognised and have trained with in the past, running in the inaugural IAAF World Cross Country Championships back in 1973.
Bill Robinson was an active member of Blaydon Harriers when I joined them back in 1981. But was running for Gateshead Harriers when this photograph was taken.
I still often bump into Bill, now well into his 70’s riding his bike along the Derwent Walk when I am out for a Sunday morning run.
