    Thank you so much for such an honest overview of the race. I'll be doing it for the first time this year and an absolute novice with it too but watching your video just inspired me even more. Thanks mate

      Not long now, Katie! The nerves/excitement grows each day!
      Get everything all organised before the weekend and then, if you can, relax! Good luck for it! I'll keep an eye out on the TV for you!

    Lovely video such common sense and useful advice. I did the first 9 GNR’s then got pregnant my baby is now 32. I’m doing the 5k as part of the great north weekend. I’ve done 13 GNR’s so far - I’m 61 and hope to do at least another one - it used to be easier to get a number/entry. Good luck everyone in all GNR events 2022. Listen to this guy he has totally intelligently conveyed how to tackle the main even - nice one kidda.xxx

    Great advice thankyou, i am doing my first ever marathon and it will be GNR 2022 4 days before my 60th birthday. Training is hard But your advice " Do your own pace is how i have been working on. Its a marathon NOT the Olympics, Not the time its to finish. And raise lots for the BRITISH HEART FOUNDATION. Thanks for your honest and useful advice.

    Thanks for this step by step guide for GNR-I'm doing it this year for my first time. Looking forward to it though very nervous about it!! Good luck 'A Runner's Ramble' and everyone who doing it.

    • @ARunnersRamble
      @ARunnersRamble  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Rebecca Elsdon Thank you, Rebecca! I'll be doing another video this year as I'll be there too! Nerves are part of the fun!
      I'm almost certain it won't be your last GNR!

    • @rebeccaelsdon5792
      @rebeccaelsdon5792 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I will keep by eyes peeled. Thank you!! How's your GRN training going?

    • @ARunnersRamble
      @ARunnersRamble  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's going great! Blaydon Races helped massively the other night, need to fight the temptation to NOT run! I'm sure I'll be fine, I have Virtual Running bling to claim!

    • @rebeccaelsdon5792
      @rebeccaelsdon5792 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Same here. Blaydon had such a great atmosphere. I went out today for a recover run only ran 8km. I'm sure you would be fine!!

    • @ARunnersRamble
      @ARunnersRamble  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Excellent! I should have done the same. Nevermind, back on the short miles and hills this week!

  • @TheC0G
    @TheC0G 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sage Advice,!Still struggling where to park (thinking LEA?). We are coming up for M'Boro and coming off at Washington and following the dual carriageways up to South Shields. Hopefully complete my 12 half Marathon's in 12 months (actually 14, including Para 10 at Cater rick the week after the GNR). Thank you dude! ;-)

    • @ARunnersRamble
      @ARunnersRamble  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you very much!, Rob! The leas? They’ve totally closed off the parking bays from the bottom of the Marsden Inn bank (big drop hilly thing). I’d try park on the outskirts of South Shields! Ohh now that sounds incredible! Bravo, sir! 👏🏻 good luck for GNR!

    Hi Mate,
    Great video, iam doing the GNR this year. What would you say the best way to get there and back would be from Morpeth?
    Thanks

    • @ARunnersRamble
      @ARunnersRamble  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hiya Tom, whta are the chances, I live in Morpeth as well!
      Best way I made it was get the train to Newcastle then the metro to haymarket!

  • @dannygreenough8658
    @dannygreenough8658 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      @ARunnersRamble  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I certainly am! Finally back after a year's absence. Hope the training is going well, you're going to love the #GreatNorthRun!

    • @dannygreenough8658
      @dannygreenough8658 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm sure you'll be okay on the day. The atmosphere is unforgettable! Thank you, I'm very happy how it's going, just want to get round in one piece.

    @johnojogsjohnson5665 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Also why on earth would anyone want to give a thumbs down to this video?? Ridiculous, it should have a lot more views and likes than it has already I thought it was a great run through (no pun intended lol)

    • @ARunnersRamble
      @ARunnersRamble  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Chris Johnson Thank you SO much for this, Chris! I really appreciate your kind words about this video! It's why I made this series for first-time GNR runners, just to shine a bit of light on what to expect! Hope the training is going well!

    • @johnojogsjohnson5665
      @johnojogsjohnson5665 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      A Runner's Ramble No problem at all mate, it deserves more views than its had. a suggestion that you might want to consider if u like, possibly try doing a walk of your highlighted parts of the course? the way you described things was really good but to also have a bit of a visual to it would be really good I think. just a thought mate, keep up the good work mate cheers

    • @johnojogsjohnson5665
      @johnojogsjohnson5665 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      A Runner's Ramble Also, I've since watched your video a few more times but also had a notepad and pen to jot down all the top tips. I'm so glad I watched your video because I'd have been no where near prepared. Cheers

    • @ARunnersRamble
      @ARunnersRamble  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The ballot has already taken place, sadly BUT there are charity places available I’d imagine! Head to Great Run’s site, as there would be much better info there for you!

    His I need some advice I'm nearly 15 and can run 5k in 22:55 how fast do you reckon I can run a half marathon

    • @ARunnersRamble
      @ARunnersRamble  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      My advice would be to run one! You'll never know until you clock the 13.1 miles!
