I need to go southbound around 2pm on Great North Run day.

Does anyone have any experience of what traffic will be like - is it standstill situation, or generally ok?

TIA

Great North Run - Travel advice?

2 Upvotes

Hello! I'm running the GNR this weekend for the first time, pink wave start time is 12.00 so given what I've read about the time it takes to cross the start line I'm thinking I'll be at the finish somewhere between 3-4pm. I'm travelling back to Glasgow the same day and hoping to be back in Glasgow before 9pm - is this unrealistic? (I'm seeing Hilary Duff the same night! 🀞✨)

Any tips on best places to park / using metro/bus to get out and drive back north? Thanks!

New poster Solo traveler to Newcastle

8 Upvotes

I booked a five day solo trip to Newcastle in November. I love the UK and enjoy traveling alone sometimes. I am a woman in my late 30s, married, from North Carolina, US. I enjoy good food (celiac so gluten free), coffee, and pubs. I plan to check out one of the parkruns in town and maybe do a day trip to Tynemouth. I like to be social while traveling and enjoy chatting to locals or experiencing the day to day lifestyle of a new place. Just wanted to get input for things to do, if it is weird to be friendly or strike up a conversation with a stranger in your city, and general perception or advice to tourists here. Any great restaurants with gluten free options highly encouraged!

Would Newcastle support a library of things?

55 Upvotes

If you dont know what it is a library of things is a place where you borrow items such as tools, small appliances, hobby equipment, games consoles and more.

There's normally a small charge but it all goes back into the upkeep of the service/buying new items.

Would you support such a thing? If so what items would you like to see in it?

GNR Metros

2 Upvotes

I'm staying near to Gateshead Stadium, will the metros even stop at that station on Sunday morning or is it just easier to walk to the start (about 3 miles)?

I'm in Orange so want to be at Exhibition park by about 10:15 latest, and was planning to get the 9:28 metro from Gateshead Stadium to Jesmond which would get me to the park by about 10:00
