SHOPPING AND RACING
FOR CANCER RESEARCH
Race for Life – a series of 5km charity runs across
the UK in aid of Cancer Research – begins in
earnest this month. In preparation, some women
have got fi t for the event in a less than conventional
fashion: by shopping!
To help women prepare for Race for Life, Cancer
Research launched Shop for Life: a gentle exercise
regime staged in 11 UK shopping centres. The fi rst
session was held in Chapelfi eld’s in Norwich in
March, with others following throughout April and
May. The idea was that a 40-minute walk around
the centres would burn up to 200 calories, with
bursts of speed and stair climbing included in the
mix to raise heart rate and calorie consumption.
Natasha Dickinson, head of Race for Life,
says: “Without even realising it, many women
cover several kilometres on an average weekend
shopping trip. Shop for Life is a great way to help
women prepare for Race for Life.”
