Julia Rogerson, Events and Promotions Manager for Willen Hospice, commented:
“The race was a fantastic and hilarious event that raised £500 for the Hospice. The Hospice, contrary to popular belief, is full of laughter and fun, so organising an event like this reflects that feeling out in the community.”
