About this Event
🏃♂️ Run the Final Leg with Chris! 🎄
After 1,000 miles, 17 days and an incredible journey for Cash for Kids North East, Chris is finally heading for home — and you can be part of the final leg!
On 28 November, we’re inviting everyone to join Chris for the last 8 miles of his challenge, running together from Newcastle Central Station to Great Park Community Centre, where the finish-line celebrations will be waiting.
Whether you’re a regular runner, a casual jogger, a walker, or simply want to be part of this incredible moment, everyone is welcome. This is a community run, not a race, and the pace will be about enjoying the journey and supporting Chris as he completes his phenomenal challenge.
📍 Meet at Newcastle Central Station
🕜 Meeting time: 1:30pm
🏃 Distance: 8 miles
🏁 Finish: Great Park Community Centre
👨👩👧👦 Suitable for all ages and abilities
Come along with your friends, family and Christmas spirit, and help Chris cover those final miles. After everything he has put into this challenge, having the community beside him for the final stretch will make the finish even more special.
And once we reach Great Park Community Centre, the Finish Line celebration will begin, with food vans, activities, entertainment and plenty more waiting for everyone.
1,000 miles. 17 days. 8 final miles. One incredible finish.
Come and run, walk, jog, cheer and celebrate with Chris as he completes Chris Runs Christmas and helps raise money for Cash for Kids North East. 🎅🎄🏃♂️
