NOTICE FOR GREAT NORTH RUN MEMBERSHIP RUNNERS

The deadline for 2020 Great North Run entrants to roll their place to 2021 has passed. If you opted not to roll your entry over, then you wil receive a refund. You don’t need to do anything to claim this, we will process it automatically to the card you paid on. It will take us a little while to process refunds, so we ask you to bear with us whilst we process your refund. Please see our FAQs should you have a query.

We have extended membership for another year for 2020 GNR members with a 2020 place and Members not in their final year of membership who did not take up their guaranteed place in the 2020 Great North Run. For any GNR members who are in their final year of membership but who did not take up their guaranteed place in the 2020 Great North Run, we will not extend your membership and your membership term will end as planned in 2020.
