Great North Run, 13.1 miles

The Great North Run takes place on Sunday 11 September 2022 and Pets As Therapy has a limited number of free places for runners wishing to take part.

57,000 determined and dedicated runners make the Great North Run the world’s biggest and best half marathon, famous for its warm North East welcome, unbeatable atmosphere and the millions raised for charity. The half marathon route starts in Newcastle, and after 13.1 miles runners cross the finishing line in South Shields.

If you’re interested and happy to run and raise money for PAT*, like Jimmy and Hayley in the video below, email us by clicking HERE.
