What to wear

Make sure you look the part at your Race for Life

Dressing up for your event is part of the fun! Lots of ladies come to their Race for Life event in fancy dress or all kitted out in pink.

Not sure what to wear? Visit our Race for Life shop and see our fantastic range of T-shirts, accessories and fancy dress for inspiration. Or visit our Race for Life Facebook page and take a look at the photos some of you have posted.

The basics

Make sure that you have:

running number and back sign that you received in your Race pack.

trainers or comfy shoes appropriate for walking, jogging or running.

breathable clothing and a good sports bra.

hat or visor to protect you from the sun.

water.

Fancy dress and finishing touches

Wearing fancy dress or adding some accessories to your Race for Life outfit is totally up to you – but we think it's a great way to make the day extra special.

Many women wear fairy wings, feather boas, deely boppers and tutus. Make a night in of it and organise a get together before your event to plan or design your outfits with friends and family.
