AJ Bell Great North Run 2027

The world's biggest half marathon!

60,000 incredible participants run from the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne to South Shields each year! From the rush of the Red Arrows flying overhead to the oggy-oggy-oggy chants, Great North Run magic can be hard to understand- until you’ve experienced it for yourself.

There are 2 ways in which you can run in support of Weston Park Cancer Charity:

1. Great North Run ballot

If you were lucky enough to be given a place for the run & would like to use it to support the charity, please get in touch with us via events@wpcancercharity.org.uk. We would be hugely grateful for your support and ensure you receive our support, as well as a free running top or vest!

2. Charity places

We are currently waiting to hear how many places our charity has managed to secure for this run.

If we are successful in getting a place/s and you would like to be notified, please get in touch with the events team here.

If you are successful in securing one of our charity places, the team will support you every step of the way!
