Athlete Steve Cram leads soldiers from the Aldershot-based Third Battalion Parachute Regiment across the iconic Tyne Bridge during a captivating morning run on 20 October 1987. In an effort to recruit more Geordie lads and shed light on their commendable work, the Paras took to Tyneside with determination and pride. The photograph captures a remarkable moment as Cram, renowned for his athletic prowess, effortlessly guides a medium-sized group of men through the dawn-lit streets. Their synchronized strides symbolize unity and resilience, showcasing the physical strength and mental fortitude required in both athletics and military service. The image exudes nostalgia, transporting us back to the vibrant atmosphere of the 1980s.
