Bupa Great North Run

Date of event:  15 September 2013


NSPCC runners at the Great North Run

This iconic race from Newcastle to South Shields is the world's most popular half marathon, with 52,000 runners taking part, and over 500 from the NSPCC's team.

The atmosphere on race day is electric and we'll be there to provide you with support before, during, and after the race.

Looking for an NSPCC place?

If you were unsuccessful  in the ballot, you can still apply for an NSPCC charity place. We have a number of guaranteed places available.

The registration fee is £20 and we ask you to commit to raising a minimum sponsorship of £400. You'll receive our full training and fundraising support, personalised running vest, cheer points and post-race refreshments and massage.

Register for an NSPCC place and guarantee your entry today.

Run with your own place?

If you were successful in securing a place in the ballot and would like to run for the NSPCC, we'd love to welcome you to the team!

Register as an own place runner and receive the same support as our charity place runners.

There is no minimum sponsorship, we just ask that you raise as much as you can for vulnerable children.
