News Writing Competition

Ever fancied yourself as a short story or sports writer? Or perhaps you have some special memories of taking part in a big sporting or outdoor event or of watching a friend or family member train for months and finally crossing the finish line with their head held high - perhaps even the Bupa Great North Run?
