A spectator-lined course covers 13.1 miles from Newcastle, across the iconic Tyne Bridge and onto the picturesque coastal finish in South Shields.
The Great North Run is firmly established as the world's most popular half-marathon. From just 5,000 runners at the very first staging in 1981, the event has now grown to an unmissable experience for over 54,000 each year.
The Great North Run is not only part of the culture in the North East, but has touched lives across the UK and around the world - with runners from over 40 different countries taking part.
Most runners choose to raise money for charities close to their hearts. Thank you very much for choosing HospiceCare North Northumberland.
We will be arranging transportation to and from the Great North Run this year, please do specify early if you need a spot on the bus! Pick up/Drop off locations to be confirmed at a later date alongside cost per seat.
Here are some thoughts from our previous runners -
"I just wanted to say a quick BIG thank you for putting on such a good "recovery tent" after the GNR. The lunch packs, sweets, cups of tea, massage and fantastic atmosphere really made it a very special day. Thanks again, see you next year......."
"Thanks again for yesterday the support and tent was fab!"
