In Yorkshire, 594 people a week receive a cancer diagnosis. When you fundraise for Yorkshire Cancer Research, you fund research to improve the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cancer in Yorkshire.
The Sheffield Half Marathon organised by Run for All, is a major event in the UK's running calendar.
The beautifully scenic route attracts runners of all ages and abilities to the Steel City's streets, taking in gorgeous views of the Peak District. You'll have the opportunity to participate in a timed hill climb in order to be crowned 'King of the Hill' or 'Queen of the Hill'. Plus, there's also a 10K downhill sprint section to look forward to.
“We received brilliant support at St James’s in Leeds. I decided I wanted to give something back for the sake of others facing cancer. Since then, my wife Bev has been gaining strength so we decided to do something together to raise money for Yorkshire Cancer Research.”
