For men and women of Motherwell, Run 10k is calling for entries and it has been confirmed that the event will return for the second successive year to Strathclyde Country Park on Sunday, October 26.
Helen Webster, Run 10k organizer for Strathclyde said: "Cancer affects so many people and joining the Strathclyde Country Park 10k is a great way to support them by raising money for Cancer Research UK’s work to find new ways of treating, curing and preventing the disease."
Cancer Research UK supports many scientists in and around Scotland. Much of this research is taking place at the Cancer Research UK Beatson Laboratories in Glasgow. Researchers here are leading innovative studies into all aspects of cancer biology and conducting a range of clinical trials.
"Running 10k is an achievable challenge for everyone with some training. Why don’t you challenge your friends and family to take part with you?" asks Helen Webster.
