Virtual Great North Run 2020 (Sunday 13 September)

While everyone can’t gather together to run the famous 13.1 mile route, you can still ‘Be Your Greatest’ and support people living with TSC.

The Virtual Great North Run is a free to enter half marathon challenge. There’s no minimum sponsorship pledge, we simply ask you to raise what you can.

With their partners ViRACE, the Great North Run organisers are creating an app to bring you an innovative virtual experience with audio clips from the event so that you will hear the sounds of the Great North Run. From an upbeat warm-up led by the legendary Roy Gayle, to chants of OGGY OGGY OGGY, and the iconic roar of the Red Arrows fly-past, they are making it feel as much like the real event as we can!

The event will mimic a race format so that all runners start their Virtual Great North Run at the same time on 13 September 2020 and complete the same 13.1 mile distance. Runners will be tracked throughout the virtual race and will be able to view results after the race has finished.
