Don’t get mad, get muddy!
Cancer plays dirty – so can we. Race for Life Pretty Muddy® in partnership with Tesco is a totally non-competitive event where women of all shapes and sizes slip, slide and splash their way to the finish line via a range of obstacles – scrambling under nets, venturing through tunnels and over tyres, and (our favourite) swooshing inelegantly down the mud slide.
As any stylish woman about town knows, pink goes rather well with brown, so be utterly fashionable this summer and join the thousands of women of all ages taking part in one of London’s six Race for Life Pretty Muddy events happening between now and October.
