The Great North Run is the world’s biggest half marathon, attracting thousands of runners from across the globe. This iconic event takes you through the vibrant streets of Newcastle, over the famous Tyne Bridge, and finishes by the stunning coastline of South Shields.
On September 13th 2026 you could be on the runners to take on this famous half marathon! We have limited charity places available, so sign-up now, do something unforgettable this year, and make a real difference!
“I would say to anyone, ‘never say never.’ With effort and determination it can be done. Plenty of people walk/run it. And the emotional feeling that you get when you cross that finish line is totally amazing. If I can turn myself into a runner at 68 year’s old, so can anyone!”
