Great North Run 2025

Experience the Great North Run

Sign up for the Great North Run and embark on an unforgettable journey. Picture yourself dashing across the iconic Tyne Bridge, racing through Gateshead International Athletics Stadium, and soaking in the coastal beauty of South Shields. And while you're out there pounding the pavement, you'll be making strides to save men’s lives.

Why run for us? Because 1 in 8 men will get prostate cancer. By running for Prostate Cancer UK, you're not just challenging yourself – you're raising essential funds and awareness for the most common cancer in men.

Start your journey in Newcastle and finish with memories that will last a lifetime.
