Overview

Get ready Newcastle to MoRun around the stunning Exhibition Park! The run route is a mix of flat path and tarmac running. It's dog friendly and OK for buggy running but some sections can be bumpy. This course is not suitable for wheelchairs. The 5K is one lap, the 10K is two laps and the half marathon is an initial 1.1k loop before 4 full laps. When heading towards the finish, 5K runners stay left, 10K runners and half marathon runners stay right to turn to head for their additional laps. After their last lap, runners stay left to head to the finish.

This was my first 10K event and I loved it. The energy, atmosphere and overall organisation was superb and would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for an opportunity to challenge themselves, from all levels! It supports a great cause as well, so it was nice to see the tashes! Manesha S

A great event and my first. Shame there weren't many vendors for spectators to have something to do apart from the coffee shop. Friendliness and commentators were fantastic and made my moment of crossing that finishing line after a punishing 10km so much more special with having my name called out, a round of applause and the girls with the medals smiling and telling me well done. Overall, it was fantastic, something I'll never forget. Thank you for making memories and all for a great cause. Al H

A great event. Everyone was happy and helpful. I never had to ask any questions as the event was explained several times. The medal and sweatband are different to other events which was great. Only thing I would change was that my medal stated which race I participated in. Would happily recommend to friends and family and would do it again next year. Chris P

The finishers bling is great quality, chunky and unique! I even got a special Legends Medal for my Stormtrooper costume, Double Bling! Fancy dress costumes are optional but many people/groups make a great effort with them. So for a great run, for either quick club runners or someone dressed as a dinosaur and all for a great cause (Movember) give it a go! Peter M

I've run this event twice and both times have been fairly good, well organised but most importantly, fun! Overall, a tidy and fun even to be a part of. Running with friends is a great way to enjoy it more, the double bling (race participation & costume prize) was an added bonus. The marshals, support and the rest of the Mo Run team were fantastic.
