Junior and Mini Great North Run 2022

Minis aged 3-8 take on a daring 1.5km dash, while Juniors aged 9-16 tackle a 4km supercharged sprint.

There’s nothing quite like the amazing sight of over 10,000 happy, smiling, active kids taking part for fun, for charity, for a challenge, and earning a very special medal for their efforts. With plenty of encouragement and high-fives from the crowds, it’s an action-packed day with an atmosphere like no other.

Expect an iconic riverside route, photo opportunities, fancy dress, fundraising and lots of family fun.
