This month you can walk for life saving research into secondary spread breast cancer. You can choose from a Marathon, Half Marathon or 10K distance in the fundraising event for Against Breast Cancer.
Follow in the footsteps of King Charles after his escape from Worcester in 1651 on “The Monarchs Way”. Take on the half marathon to enjoy the Clarendon, Itchen and Pilgrims way too. Enjoy the riverside on the edge of Historic Winchester and St Catherine’s Hill too. Take on the full marathon and you will be rewarded with the splendour of the South Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The events take place on May 12, setting off from Winchester. Participation costs £13 to £30, depending on length, with discounts available for under 18s and concessions.
There will be an event village with refreshments, toilets and free on-site parking throughout the day. Fully signposted routes with well-stocked feed stations throughout as well as medical support. Medal and massage at the finish. Dogs welcome.

Against Breast Cancer funds pioneering research into new treatments, tools for earlier diagnosis and advice to reduce the risk of recurrence and secondary spread. Working with expert scientists they want to increase the survival rates of all breast cancer patients and ultimately, discover a vaccine against breast cancer.
