The event:

Bidwells Cambridge 10k is the second run of the year in our Town and Gown series. Inspired by Daniel Cleaver who had muscular dystrophy, it started in 1982 in Oxford. Daniel’s father and local runners set up the event as a fun run to raise money for muscular dystrophy and to this day all profits still go to our work.

This sell-out scenic 10k route takes you through the heart of Cambridge past landmarks, historic university college buildings and along the River Cam.

The cause:

Muscular Dystrophy UK (MDUK) is the charity for the 110,000 people living with muscle-wasting conditions in the UK. There's no cure, it limits and, in many cases, shortens lives. MDUK funds groundbreaking research into treatments and cures, as well as life-changing support for individuals and families living with these conditions across the UK.

Join us, and help change the future of muscle-wasting conditions. Because our muscles matter. And together, we are stronger.
