About the event The routes head out from Royal Surrey Cancer Centre, where you'll walk along some beautiful trails in Guildford. You'll take in the views from the Hog's Back and North Downs Way, before heading back over the A3 to cross the finish line back at the Cancer Centre. The routes are well marked and there will be water and aid stations placed at approximately half way points, providing hot and cold drinks, and snacks. There is a 5km, 10km, 15km and 25km route for you to choose from. The 5km family-friendly route is wheelchair and buggy accessible, and perfect for little ones or those looking for a shorter challenge (under 18s must be accompanied by an adult on the day). All you have to do is put one foot in front of the other, and we'll take care of the rest. Timings Why take part? Officially opened by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth in 1997, St Luke’s treated around 2,500 patients in its first year. Today, now called Royal Surrey Cancer Centre, it typically conducts over 60,000 outpatient appointments a year and our wonderful staff continue to offer incredible care to every individual who comes through our doors. We want to make sure the cancer centre is here for people living with cancer for years to come. There is so much more we can do to ensure you have access to exceptional care – but we need your help. Every penny and pound you raise will make a huge difference to so many lives affected by cancer – funding lifesaving equipment and innovative treatments, supporting staff wellbeing so they can continue to give the very best care, and enhancing the centre to make it more comfortable and welcoming for all our patients.
