The 40th Great North Run might have been moved to 2021 but you can still take part... virtually. Sign up now.
On Sunday 13th of September, we want you to lace up your trainers and take on the Official Virtual Great North Run!
The virtual race will mimic the world’s greatest half marathon with all runners starting their Great North Run experience at the same time and taking on the 13.1 mile distance together.
This year, every runner will be tracked, so you’ll be able to view the results of the race right after you have finished! What’s more, you can enjoy the Great North Run experience with sound effects from the race to help motivate you along the way.
All you need to do is to get started is click the link below, choose your 13.1 mile route and then get fundraising for Capital's charity, Global’s Make Some Noise to help those charities hit hardest by coronavirus.
Global’s Make Some Noise is an appeal operated by Global Charities, a registered charity in England & Wales (1091657) & Scotland (SC041475)
