Thanks to Jenny and Sue for sharing news of this alternative run.
After the official Isle of Wight Race for Life, that was planned to take place in Newport on 29th July was cancelled yesterday, Susan Plummer decided that she would arrange an unofficial run in its place.
It’s hoped that the 5km race will be held on the same day, Sunday 29th July, starting at 10am from Appley seafront.
The run will take place in memory of all those who have been lost to or are living with Cancer.
Facebook group will have more info
An unofficial Facebook Group has been set up to canvass views from those who plan to still run.
A announcement will be posted to the group on Sunday with final details.
Discount on Hovertravel
In addition, anyone planning to take part in the Portsmouth Race for Life event on the same day can benefit from reduced Hovertravel fares, as the company is offering a 20% discount for those taking part.
A great gesture from Hovertravel.
