Race for Life events are taking place across the UK. Choose your nearest Race for Life event and be part of the UK's largest women-only fundraising event to help beat cancer.

I did the run at Sutton Park in Birmingham in 2002. There was a fantastic atmosphere on the day, with a huge crowd of women of all ages taking part, all raising money for Cancer Research. It's a 5km walk, run, stroll or however you want to do it! Anyone else fancy it? friendly_hamster

I am hoping my knee will be better, or else it will be a 5km hop for me! weint_vor_lachen

Sounds like a plan, you could share one leg with a bad ankle and a duff knee. ist_depressiv

It doesn't sound so good when you think about it.

A couple of ladies I know are doing it - the thing is, if we all did it there'd be no-one left to sponsor us - so I'm being a sponsor instead. daumen_hoch

I think it's getting better, slowly.

Right, I am fairly confident my knee is on the mend so I have registered for the Race for Life (as opposed to the Hop for Life weint_vor_lachen

). If anyone would like to sponsor me, please visit my fundraising page:

Only 12 days until I do the Race for Life and I am really looking forward to it. I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who has sponsored me from Combi Campers tanzt

. So far, I have raised £177, which with Gift Aid means Cancer Research UK will receive over £220 for its life-saving work. Thanks everyone! ahgg_hsdance

I will keep you updated on how it goes and post some pictures. daumen_hoch
