Your wait may be over in a few weeks but in the meantime, how about a reminder of South Tyneside gym scenes from the Shields Gazette archives.
We have gym openings, a celebrity visitor from times gone by and a charity day for you to reminisce on.
But how many of these scenes do you remember.
Get running back in time and take a good look.
