The 2007 BUPA Great North Run will take place on Sunday 30th September.
The world's biggest half marathon, the BUPA Great North Run, celebrated its 26th anniversary in 2006 and is a point-to-point course that starts in Newcastle and finishes in South Shields.
Celebrities from the worlds of sport, television and film will be lining up alongside thousands of other runners as they take on the challenge of running this year's Great North Run.
After firing the starter's pistol in 2006, England manager Steve McClaren signed up to do the Great North Run in 2007.
He said the sight of thousands of people streaming past him when he started the race last year was awesome and he was looking forward to having a go himself.
There are also plenty of faces from television including Countdown presenter Carol Vorderman, Emmerdale stars including Jeff Hordley, Tony Audenshaw, Nicola Wheeler and Chris Chitell, Green Wing star Steve Mangan, Dean Lennox Kelly, from Shameless, and presenter and adventurer Ben Fogle.
Model Nell McAndrew will also be there along with Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels actor Jason Flemyng.
There are also representatives from politics including Tony Blair's former communications chief Alastair Campbell and former sports minister Richard Caborn.
There is an impressive field in the elite race with women's marathon world record holder Paula Radcliffe lining up alongside Jo Pavey, among others.
In the men's race, world half marathon record holder Sammy Wanjiru will lead the challenge to become the 2007 Great North Run champion
One special runner to watch for is Will Box
As if taking part in the Great North Run isn't enough of a challenge in itself, Wilf Box has chosen to do it in his full firefighting gear.
It will be hard to miss the 42-year-old on the day - standing at 6ft 7ins and wearing fireproof jacket, gloves, helmet, boots and breathing apparatus, including a cylinder, he will be an imposing sight.
He is raising money for mental health charity Mind and has a target of £2,000.
Hopefully next week I will have photos of the event to share in my stash
