About this event:

1k and 5k events (walk, jog or run) for Cancer Research UK. Open to men, women and children in the heart of the historic market town of Louth, Lincolnshire.

The event starts and ends in the Market Place in the pretty Lincolnshire market town of Louth. The route takes in the beautiful Hubbards Hills Park and has great support along the way.

Fancy Dress is always encouraged and spot prizes are given!

On the day:

Join us in the market place for a warm up, then the children's (under 12's) 1k will start at 10am, the women's 5k starts at 10:30am and finally the men's 5k at 11:45am. As always the event will be followed up with an afterparty at the Kings Head on Mercer Row with live music from local bands.

Sign up today and raise funds to help us beat cancer sooner. Early bird offer applies and as of the 1st June prices for the men and womens race will increase to £15.00. Tie those laces because every step you take will be beating cancer.
