People are invited to step into spring by signing up to Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life in Carlisle.
Race for Life will be held at Bitts Park on Sunday, July 30 and is open to all ages and abilities. Women, men and children can choose from 3k, 5k and 10k events. There is also a chance to take part in Pretty Muddy – a mud-splattered obstacle course - and there’s a Pretty Muddy Kids option too.
Marianne Olier, Race for Life spokesman for Carlisle, said: “We’d love for as many people as possible across Carlisle to join us during our 30th year of Race for Life.
“Spring is an ideal time to commit to getting a little more active. Sadly, cancer affects all of us in some way. Whether people are living with cancer, taking part in honour of or in memory of a loved one with cancer, or signing up to protect their own children’s future, everyone has a reason to Race for Life. So we’re asking people across Carlisle: ‘Who will you race for?’
“Our Race for Life events are open to all. For some people, the Race for Life is literally a walk in the park. Slow and steady still wins. For others, it’s a jog. Others may opt to push themselves harder, taking up the challenge of the 10K distance.
“But what is for certain is we’re looking forward to welcoming people of all ages and abilities.”
Anyone who joins between now and Sunday April 30 can claim 30 per cent off the entry fee as part of a special sale by using the code SPRING30.
