Midsummer Common, Cambridge
This fast and flat course starts and finishes on Victoria Avenue in the center of Cambridge, with Midsummer Common as the event site. Previous courses have guided athletes from Midsummer Common through the city center and have included exclusive access to four University of Cambridge colleges, providing breathtaking views and a glimpse of iconic landmarks not typically visible.
This event is well-known for its exceptional encouragement along the way, provided by spectators, our dedicated volunteers, as well as music hotspots by local musicians and bands who cheer on participants and maintain their motivation.
Whether you are a novice runner or a competitive athlete aiming for a personal best, this event is an ideal selection.
CICRA is dedicated to creating a wider understanding of Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), particularly as it affects children and young adults. We provide support and understanding for children and young people and their families. We raise funds to sponsor Research Fellowships and PhD studentships and give grants to support approved medical and scientific research projects in major gastroenterological centres nationwide. Investment in research has led to new treatments and has helped to train many of the specialists who today treat children throughout the UK.
