Every runner has a reason. 🏃‍♀️💭❤️

To celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the AJ Bell Great North Run Junior & Mini, the Share Chair made its debut, giving our youngest runners the chance to pause after the finish line and share the stories behind their miles.

From running with friends and family to taking on a challenge, raising money or simply wanting to cross that finish line, every young runner had a story to tell.

These are the voices, reasons and little moments that made the 40th Anniversary so special. ❤️

Stay tuned as we share their stories every week. 🏃‍♂️
