The Great North Run is the world's biggest half marathon, with a route that spans Newcastle and South Shields. To celebrate the event, Josh plays music from great northern artists and bands (do you see what he did there?) including The Beatles, Arctic Monkeys, Lisa Stansfield, English Teacher, The KLF, Olive and more. Nathan Shepherd from 6 Music's Indie Forever and New Music Fix picks 2 of his favourite northern running tracks. Plus listener Lewis drops by via voice note to talk about why music and running are a perfect combo. A We Are Grape production for BBC Sounds
