THE RACE IS THIS SUNDAY BUT YOU CAN STILL REGISTER ON THE DAY AT THE EVENT! ONLINE ENTRIES HAVE CLOSED.
For those worried about global warming, getting hot and sweaty might not seem an obvious way to cool things down, but it is!
Join our annual 10k and fight climate change by protecting rainforests.
The 1st of November 2009 sees the 9th annual Rainforest Run take place in Finsbury Park, London N4. So pop on your running shoes and help to reduce the earth's carbon emission by making some footprints that won't do any damage!
Destruction of the rainforest causes more CO2 emissions than all of the world's planes, trains and automobiles so enjoy a fun day out and make a difference at the same time.
Hot and Bothered?
Bring your family along for a great day out, take part in our children's 1km fun run, have your face painted or even have a jump on our bouncing castle.
The Rainforest 10km Run has been approved as a Race that will be held under UK Athletics Rules for Competition and in accordance with the Licence Requirements. (Licence Number 11057).
