About The Event

60,000 determined and dedicated runners make the AJ Bell Great North Run the World’s biggest and best half marathon.

The AJ Bell Great North Run is famous for its inclusive atmosphere, unbeatable on-route entertainment and warm Geordie welcome, not to mention the millions raised each year for worthy causes. From the rush of the Red Arrows flying overhead to the oggy-oggy-oggy chants, the AJ Bell Great North Run magic can be hard to understand – until you’ve experienced it for yourself on the Newcastle to South Shields route.

This year’s event takes place on September 7, 2025.

All of our spaces have now been allocated. Best of luck to everyone taking part.
