About the event
No matter how cancer affects us, life is worth Racing for.
-
The 5k is a good first challenge for most people.
-
5k is just over 3 miles and can take about an hour to complete on average, but there's no pressure to finish in a certain time. The one thing we’re beating is cancer.
-
Go at your own pace and help fund life-saving cancer research.
Join forces or go solo.
You can take part in any Race for Life event as an individual or a group to raise money for life-saving cancer research.
Walk, jog or run together in a group or go solo at your own pace. You could lead the way as a Group Leader and get family, friends and colleagues involved!
Whatever you do, however far you go, you’re helping to beat cancer.
Warm up with other Race for Lifers.
Shake off any pre-race nerves and get moving with our fun warm-up session just before your event.
Supporters and spectators welcome.
Bring along as many supporters as you like to cheer you on! We’ve got things for everyone to do, check out the Location section of your event page to see what’s happening on the day.
Soak up the atmosphere.
After you've completed the course, stay on and celebrate with other participants, friends and family with a picnic in the park.
