Great North Run 2026

Take on The AJ Bell Great North Run for Hearing Dogs - the world’s biggest and best half marathon!

It’s famous for its inclusive atmosphere, unbeatable on-route entertainment, and warm Geordie welcome. From the rush of the Red Arrows flying overhead to the oggy-oggy-oggy chants, Great North Run magic can be hard to understand – until you’ve experienced it for yourself.
Join Team Hearing Dogs with one of our charity places and you’re guaranteed a run like no other – and a finish line feeling you’ll never forget!
