The route is also suitable for pushchairs and wheelchair users with assistance.
The event provides refreshments, toilets and on site parking, creating a welcoming environment for participants and spectators alike. Combining community spirit, fundraising and an inclusive 5K challenge, the Race for Life Lincoln 5K offers an enjoyable opportunity to support Cancer Research UK's vital work.
