On 19th October there will be a practice event for anyone wishing to come along and test the planned course.
Meet at Fethiye Culture Centre at 2pm.
Cost is just 5 tl per person and will go towards cancer research, awareness and treatment of cancer locally.
No requirement to run, but we would love as many people to join us and wear red or white. fancy dress if you would like, the more fun the better.

There will also be an opportunity for anyone wishing to register to sign up, from 1pm, for the real Race for Life, Turkey ( Yasam icin yaris ) which will be held on 12th April 2015. Registration for the main event is 10tl.

Remember, you don't have to run, just do your best, it's 5km on the flat with stunning scenery.
Yürü, koş,Başar - walk it, run it, best it.

We went into the Fetav Office yesterday and signed up for the race for life and paid for the T shirts as well.
Unfortunately the T shirts are out of stock and a new batch have been ordered , we left with a receipt for the money but not until today did we realize we didn't get any race numbers or anything.
Just wondering when the numbers will be issued to us?
Guess it will be same time as we pick up the T shirts.
We've left our names and contact details with the lady in the shop.

Hi, yes we will have a dedicated event just before the race where you can pick up your T Shirts, Race numbers and other bits that will be in your race pack. We will let everyone know in good time. Thanks for your support.

Hi all,

Is there a closing date for entries?  We are out for Easter & my daughter & I would like to support this great initiative (at a strictly brisk walking pace!).

Hello Incir
That's great, thanks so much!
If you would like to register online and pay with paypal you can do so,
Www.yasamicinyaris.org
You can also print off a sponsor form on the how to donate page.

The race packs will be given out on Saturday 11th at the Culture Centre, so you can collect your numbers.
Let us know if this sounds ok.
And don't worry, many people will be very slow walking!

We signed up for "Race for life Turkey" at the car boot this morning. Don't normally plan that far ahead  but we've made an exception.  :)

Did not have enough lira with us to buy 2 t shirts but I'll get mine later. Will have to walk the course with maybe a stop for drink at the Denizati. If you see a "grey haired octogenarian " with a walking stick that will most likely be me. Looking forward  to the event.

Now to find some sponsers.   :)
