Congratulations to our Great North Run 2021 (40th Birthday) Runners!!
After last year's disappointment we're delighted the 40th Anniversary Celebrations are going ahead this year.
We are so grateful for the large number of applicants and 'gutted' that we couldn't accommodate more of you, as a small charity we are only allocated a tiny amount of places. Any correspondence should be sent to gnr@berwickcancersupport.co.uk

Social Training Runs (next run = Wednesday 28th July)
We take part in 'social training runs' in the run up to the main event. All are welcome (even if you are not raising funds for us). The runs are relaxed and there is no pressure, and we always adhere to strict social distancing to help to keep us all safe. 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 1930hrs each Wednesday evening
RUN AND ROUTE DETAILS WILL BE POSTED ON OUR FACEBOOK SOCIAL MEDIA GROUP (follow the link below)
Our technical sponsorship running tops have been ordered! Once issued please try and wear our sponsorship tops during your training runs. It gives our sponsors the support they deserve too. Thank You!!

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).
