The countdown to the world’s biggest half marathon is on and you can be part of the action by signing up with team English Heritage.

The AJ Bell Great North Run sees 60,000 incredible people take their place on the start line in Newcastle upon Tyne and travel 13.1 miles towards the beautiful coastline of South Shields.

If it's a Geordie welcome you're looking for then be prepared for the goosebumps as you hear the roar of thousands of supporters cheering your name, all the way from start to finish, including us in the English Heritage Cheer Squad!

The Great North Run is a run for everyone, of all ages and abilities, whether it’s your first event or your 50th.  It's an inclusive festival of running, with music blazing, crowds buzzing, legs pumping and fists bumping. There’s nothing quite like it!

Join the English Heritage Team today by running the Great North Run, and play your part in giving Englands heritage a future. You'll help over 400 places withstand the forces of nature and safeguard their stories long into the future. 

There is a non-refundable registration fee of £50, and we'd love that you pledge to raise at least £300.
