The event accommodates participants of all levels, including first-timers, families, charity teams, and individuals aiming for a personal best. The London event is one in the Kicking PancreAS™ series, which generates funds for pancreatic cancer awareness, patient support, healthcare education, and Canadian research. Participants receive a bib, swag, and a finisher medal. The event features a purple, glow-in-the-dark theme, with costumes encouraged. All funds raised remain in Canada. The fundraising goal is just over CA$47,000, with a participant target of 265, following a record-setting previous edition.
