Walkathong  open close

Get ready for the second Walkathong - 1 Jul 2012Walkathong1

Following the success of the first Walkathong in 2011, Cary Cochrane has organised a second.

She is hoping to double the number of participants to 300, including this year for the first time men, who will join a 10k walk at 8am on the National Trust's beautiful Ashridge Estate, Berkhamsted. 

Wearing teal knickers over trousers, her aim is to raise awareness of the symptoms of ovarian cancer highlighted by the fun knickers, whilst at the same time raising much needed funds.

You don't have to be super fit, just ready to have a great morning of fun. Read more of Cary's story here.

Britain V Cancer Trek including actress Charlie Brooks. Britan V Cancer

Britain V Cancer is a very special and unique event - it is the first Open Challenge of its kind whereby everyone taking part will be raising funds for the cancer charity or hospice of their choice.

You can make a real difference in the fight against cancer by signing up for the inaugural Britain V Cancer challenge.

The Jordan Desert Trek entails five days of trekking starting at the Dead Sea and finishing in the red rock city of Petra. Accompanied by Bedouin guides you will trek through mountain and desert terrain using ancient trails. You will sleep under the stars en route to the beautiful city of Petra.

There are three ways in which you can fund your Britain V Cancer Trek. All three methods require you to pay a non-refundable registration fee of £250 when you sign up for the challenge.
