Starting on the city moor in Newcastle-upon-Tyne and ending in South Shields, the Great North Run is one of the iconic British running events.
Crossing the Tyne Bridge and through the streets on Newcastle and Gateshead the race is one which competitors never forget.
The Bupa Great North Run holds the title of ‘biggest road race in the world’, with around 54,000 people taking part each year. Runners include those looking to improve a previous time, complete novices, fancy dress runners and celebrities.
We have limited Guaranteed Places available or if you are one of the lucky ones to get your own place, we would love you to join our running team.
A guaranteed place costs only £50 to register, and we ask for a minimum sponsorship of £300. As part of the package, you will receive:
• Free personalised running vest or T-shirt
• Race pack, including training and dietary advice
• Fundraising support and encouragement from our dedicated team
• Regular race information updates
• Post-race reception with a well-deserved leg massage
If you have been successful in the Great North Run ballot and have a place, you could be one of our volunteer runners, and support us by raising a minimum of £50 sponsorship.
