Walk or run: I choose
Participants can choose from the four Onco Run events:
- A 10 km timed mixed running race;
- A non-timed mixed 5 km running race;
- A non-timed mixed walk of 5 km;
- An untimed distance running race, with no time limit or route constraints.
The start of the different events will be given at several times in the morning, and the activities will begin at 8 a.m. For the moment, the organizers have counted 1,807 registered, and 25,503 euros raised! Motivated runners and walkers have until January 31 to register for the Onco Run.
