Bag yourself one of our charity places and help us be there for people living with cancer in the UK. We ask for a £30 entry fee and a minimum fundraising pledge of £400 (excluding gift aid).

If you have bought a place in the race already and would like to run for us, sign up and we'll get a free Macmillan running top sent to you. There's no minimum sponsorship, just raise as much as you can!
