Ross-shire residents invited to sign up for Race for Life event in Highland capital as Cancer Research UK initiative marks 30th anniversary
PEOPLE are being invited to kick start the new year by signing up to Cancer Research UK’s fundraising Race for Life in Inverness.
Entries are now open for the event at the city’s Bught Park on Sunday, May 28.
Anyone who joins in January can claim 50 per cent off the entry fee as part of the half-price sale by using the code RFL23NY.
This is the 30th year of Race for Life – the UK’s largest charity mass participation event – and participants will receive a special medal.
People of all ages and abilities are welcome at the Inverness Race for Life with the 10K event starting at 10am and the 5K at 11am.
Lisa Adams, Cancer Research UK spokeswoman in Scotland, said for some participants the event will be a walk in the park while others will jog and some may wish to push themselves harder.
“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,” she said.
“Sadly one in two of us will get cancer in our lifetime but support through events like Race for Life funds groundbreaking work to see more people surviving cancer. “
