RNIB has guaranteed places in the Bupa Great North Run 2010. The Bupa Great North Run is the world's biggest half marathon, with 50,000 runners pounding the streets of the North East.
Already have a place?
If you have secured a place through the race organisers' ballot, we'd love you to join Team RNIB. You can register to run for us online.
You will have access to all the same benefits as our guaranteed entry runners but you will not have a sponsorship target. We only have a limited amount of guaranteed places available, so we really appreciate any sponsorship money raised by people with their own places.

What would you lose from your life if you lost your sight?
When you lose your sight you lose more than your ability to see.
Every day, almost 100 people in the UK will start to lose their sight. RNIB gives people who have lost their sight vital support to help them find their lives again. Right now RNIB can only reach one in three of the people who need our help most. Join Team RNIB and help us reach them all.
