This is the first year that the race is being run but it's aimed to include fun runners and walkers so we expect that there will be a wide cross section of participants from fast runners to walkers; there will be a certain number from Boston Scientific (who are holding the event) taking part as walkers. Shouldn't slow the runners down though!
