Social Training Runs
We take part in 'social training runs' in the run up to the main event. All is welcome (even if you are not raising funds for us). The runs are relaxed and there is no pressure. Even if you are not running please try and join us for the PR photos at the start. Advanced runners will sometimes continue on to longer runs after the finish.
Meet at Berwick Barracks at 1830hrs

Once issued please try and wear our sponsorship tops during your training runs. It gives our sponsors the support they deserve too.
In 2018 we managed an amazing 41 runners in The Great North Run and The Junior Great North Run raising over £20,000! We also starred in the opening credits of the BBC coverage.
ARE YOU READY TO TAKE ON THE CHALLENGE?
It is difficult to get entries for the run as it is so popular but for the 2017 run we managed to have 39 participants and raised the magnificent sum of £14,000. This money allowed us to replace one of cars and the runner name him 'Miles' (in recognition of all the miles ran to raise the money).
