5K Your Way - Move Against Cancer: Shroggs Park Halifax
The benefits of keeping active are known to help people cope with cancer treatment. Movement through and beyond a cancer diagnosis can help to reduce treatment related fatigue, help preserve cardiorespiratory and muscular fitness, may reduce the side effects of chemotherapy, and can help to prevent recurrence. Importantly, physical activity can help to improve psychological and emotional well-being and is a fun and great way to meet people.
8.45am meet for a 9am start on the last Saturday of each month
