Ladies Racing for Race for Life

Racing for Life 10K ladies

On a sunny Sunday, Imperial ladies took to Hyde Park to take part in Race for Life.

On the 27th July in Hyde Park the Active Lifestyles Energia team took on the challenge of the Race for Life (5k/10k race). With over 60 Imperial staff and students registered to our Energia Race For Life team, the day was packed full of fitness, fun and sunshine for a fabulous cause. Women across all campuses at Imperial came together to support cancer awareness and raise money for the charity. Both groups have raised over £400 and counting. We hope to raise over £1000 by the end of the week. You can still donate to either the 5K group or the 10K group.

Ladies at the finish lineWith everyone taking the event in their stride we all managed to walk, jog and run around Hyde Park to loud cheers from friends and partners, sporting our Energia designed t-shirts kindly provided by Sport Imperial the whole group managed to get around Hyde Park successfully. A special thank you for Eastside Bar for providing food and drinks after the event and to Mike Mussard who was our official camera man for the day.
