Virtual Great North Run

Sign up for the Official Virtual Great North Run on Sunday 13 September

The race is free to enter, regardless of whether you had a place in this year’s Great North Run.

#GNRreimagines will mimic a race format so that all runners start their Virtual Great North Run at the same time 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. 

Great Run have also created 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.

To sign up and support Sunshine & Smiles, click here!

You can set up individual fundraising pages by using LocalGiving - Sunshine and Smiles and click "Fundraise for Us!"

Enjoy your race!

Thank you.

 

Where does this money go?

Every penny donated to Sunshine & Smiles goes directly towards the vital support we offer to our children, young people and families; whether it is Speech & Language sessions, transport for families, or paying our trained staff to support families or help our young adults into training and work.
