Don't forget to come and say hello to the Cancer Research UK team on race day at our marquee in the charity village. Sit down, refuel and learn about how the money you've raised is helping to beat cancer.

Look out for our cheering points

Ask your friends and family to come along to one of our cheering points. You could join us at our open topped cheering bus at St Helen’s Parade or at our cheering point on Pier Rd.

We have whistles, cheering sticks, loud-hailers and more so there's no excuse for being quiet! These cheering points add to the fantastic atmosphere and really boost the runners who are doing so much for us. We hope to see you there!
