The Great North Run is a 13.1-mile half marathon held in Newcastle. Organisers describe it as the world's greatest half marathon, and this charity entry is for runners joining the Get Kids Going! team.
Get Kids Going! runners receive the official Great North Run finisher's medal, along with practical support before race day: a training programme, personal trainer advice, nutrition advice from a professional nutritionist, an online fundraising page, and a fundraising information pack. The charity also provides runners with a certificate of thanks after their effort.
