Race for Life Exeter 5K and 10K is organised by Cancer Research UK and takes place at Westpoint in Clyst St Mary, Exeter. The event forms part of the Race for Life series, giving participants the choice of 5K and 10K distances while raising funds for life-saving cancer research.
The courses start and finish on a tarmac path within the Westpoint showground and follow routes across roads, tarmac pathways and grass sections around the venue. The 10K course follows a double lap of the 5K route, providing a longer challenge while maintaining the same accessible and scenic showground setting.
The event offers a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere, allowing participants to run, jog or walk at their own pace. With race day support, chip timing for the 10K and the opportunity to take part while supporting Cancer Research UK, Race for Life Exeter provides an enjoyable community event for runners of different abilities.
