Cancer Prevention Charity: World Cancer Research Fund WCRF
Stopping cancer before it starts

Running

At WCRF UK we encourage people to be physically active and eat healthily. Taking part in a running event is a natural way of combining the two, as well as raising funds for cancer research and education programmes of cancer prevention. Thank you for your support!

5km runs

If you’re new to running a 5km distance is a great starting point, it’s also a great way to have some fun – like with WCRF UK’s very own Beat the Banana! run in London. WCRF UK will provide everything you need, from training advice to fundraising support.

10km runs

If you’re keen to push yourself a little further why not take part in one of the number of 10km events around the country. Join Team WCRF UK and you’ll get full fundraising and training support.

Half marathons

A great way to test your ability – choose from the Great North Run or one of the many other half marathons around the UK. Sign up to Team WCRF UK now!
