Great North Run

The AJ Bell Great North Run is the world’s biggest and best half marathon, with 60,000 runners taking on the route from Newcastle to South Shields each year

Why not make 2025 your year to take on this challenge and support St Gemma’s Hospice in the process!

The AJ Bell Great North Run has 60,000 runners each year and we would love for some of the runners to be running to support St Gemma’s Hospice.

The half marathon is famous for its inclusive atmosphere, uneatable route-side entertainment and warm Geordie welcome. The Great North Run magic can be hard to understand until you have experienced it for yourself.

The run begins in Newcastle, crossing the river before heading towards the coast into South Shields where the run reaches the final stretches.

Great North entries are open to runners aged 17+ on the day of the event.
