Get 50% discount for Race for Life entries before 31st January

We are fans of running here at Beautiful Bicester, so we are going to keep plugging running events in 2025.

We have been to parkrun and made a few friends there. We have been asked to plug the Race for Life event that is coming up in June this year. Here are photos we have taken at previous Race for Life events.

This event is a popular event, however if you’re new to this pink and vibrant coloured running event then let’s explain a little bit more. Race for Life is run annually by Cancer Research UK.

They encourage people to enter a 5k or 10k run / walk every summer to raise vital funds for cancer research. Cancer Research UK carry out pioneering work researching how to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer. Research has been vital. In 40 years the cancer survival rate has doubled, but more still needs to be done.

We have been given a special code for you to get a discount for entries for this year’s race. If you use the following code:

RACE25NY

You will get 50% off the entry fee (T&Cs apply*). However, you have to be quick as the code expires on January 31st.

The event will be held at University Parks, Park Road in Oxford. Not far from Bicester on June 29th. This could a be a great chance to set a goal of running your first 5k or 10k helping raise vital funds for Cancer Research UK. There are 6 months until the Race for Life event giving you plenty of time to train and get ready.
