The AJ Bell Great North Run is one of the world’s biggest half-marathons, with 60,000 runners taking on the route from central Newcastle to South Shields. And you could be one of the legendary few supporting Movember’s game-changing work in men’s health with every single step.
The race is open to all skill levels. Whether you’re taking on your first half-marathon, or aiming to smash your personal best, the Great North Run is one to remember. Especially with all the motivation that will be provided – just wait until you reach the Movember cheer station on the sidelines. They've promised to roar you over the finish line.
