Comments

1. Umbra Sable: sounded like a whole lot of people to deal with
2. Nina: Always a thrill to see the crowds at the Great North Run. Just hope they've sorted out the logistics after last year's congestion
3. Hex Raven: people running in this, it looks like there's more space for spectators around the start
4. Lunar Rune: never been a fan of huge crowds, but love how this event brings the whole city together
5. Larsenadam: don't they finally have a plan for the course congestion?
6. Bianchiomar: haven't had the time to catch up on this series but 45 years is a huge milestone, wish I could get back into running again sometime
7. Ivy: can't believe they're still growing the field this big, makes it even more competitive
8. Umbra Falcon: looks like a sea of faces to me - hope the runners can navigate through that many spectators safely though
9. Umbra Falcon: crowds like this never fail to impress me but what's the deal with starting your 45th year on a Sunday
10. Iron Vesper: Finally some normality to the events schedule next week yay people running lol. Always great to see the crowds coming back to Newcastle after quieter years
11. Karimluna: don't envy the traffic control team next sunday lol
12. Milar: love seeing big events bring people together like that though it's got to be tough on the runners with all those spectators along the course
13. Rubyfalkxo: seems like the wheelchair participants are getting a lot more attention this year - is that just because it's the 45th anniversary or something else?
14. Elinranaxo: how's the new start-line format going to affect the wheelchair racers?
15. Sanaibrahim: loving the history behind this event, but would love to see more wheelchair racers integrated into the coverage
