Race Description
ABOUT THE EVENT
The Cancer Research UK London Winter Run is challenging people to keep running through the winter by taking on a 10km run on January 31st 2016. 15,000 people are expected to fill the streets making their way past London’s most iconic landmarks where they will brave the elements to raise vital funds to help beat cancer sooner.
From Westminster, runners will head out on a loop past some of London’s most famous landmarks including The London Eye, St Paul’s Cathedral, Big Ben, Tower of London and many more iconic London sites.
Areas of snow, being dubbed Snow Zones, are anticipated to feature on the winter themed route, but runners won’t let that stop them making it to the finish as they conquer the cold in aid of Cancer Research UK.
