Participants in the Great North Run will have warm and dry conditions on race day, according to the Met Office.
When the majority of the runners get underway at 10:45am, the weather in Newcastle will be cloudy and 15°C. And if we consider the average finishing time of two hours and 26 minutes for the 13.1 mile course, it will still be cloudy when most get into South Shields - in fact, you'll have to finish after 4pm (a time of more than five and a quarter hours) to see any change in the skies if the forecast is spot on!
The Met Office said: "Low cloud, mist or fog soon clearing to leave a dry day with warm sunny spells, although the chance of a light coastal shower at first. Breezy along the coast. Maximum temperature 21 °C."
