Ali Brownlee 5K

Support GNAAS in the Ali Brownlee 5K

This years Middlesbrough 5K celebrates the renowned “Voice of the Boro”, Alastair Brownlee! A legend in Teesside, we invite you to celebrate his life by running the Ali Brownlee 5K for the Great North Air Ambulance Service.

The Great North Air Ambulance Service are proud to serve the people of Teesside, as well as the rest of the North-East, North Yorkshire, Cumbria and the Isle of Man. Without the support and generosity of the public, we would not be able to provide the critical pre-hospital care that we currently do across the region.

Who can run?

The Ali Brownlee 5K is open to all runners aged 11 and over on the day of the event.

Entrants under 18 require permission from a parent or guardian to enter.

To enter someone who is under 18, you will need to put the details of someone aged over 18 in the ‘Your information’ section on the online entry form. You will then need to select the ‘Minor’ entry form tab and put the actual entrant’s information here.

The Ali Brownlee 5K is designed to be suitable for runners and participants of all abilities. We encourage you to come down and show your support for the Great North Air Ambulance Service.
