Tony Blair looks for Great North Runners

Join the Tony Blair Sports Foundation Great North Run Team 100 and help us raise the money we need to recruit more young people and adults to become volunteers or trained coaches so that everyone can make the most of themselves through sport.

We are asking our 100 runners to raise a minimum of £1000 for the Tony Blair Sports Foundation for the iconic event on Sunday October 5th.

And to get our team off to a flying start, Tony Blair himself will be the first name on each of our runner’s sponsorship forms – he has agreed to sponsor all 100 runners the first £500.

Join our Team 100

Working with our partners, Lifestyle Fitness, we will support you from start to finish and in return for your commitment and dedication you will receive a great Team 100 running package which includes:

  • Exclusive on-line training diary and fitness programme
  • Personal training help from Lifestyle Fitness Academy Trainers
  • 5 months free membership at a Lifestyle Fitness club
  • Free pedometer
  • Free water bottle
  • Free race t-shirt
  • Entry into competition to join VIPs on the day of the run
