The largest community-led event in the region regularly raises in excess of £15,000 and since 1986 it has donated over £350,000 to charities and other groups primarily located in Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire.

The Rotary Club of Sawston District, who organise the event, have developed it over the last eleven years so it engages with all sections of the community and regularly attracts over 1,000 entrants. It is one of the original local fun runs and has grown to become the largest community event of its type in the area - organised and managed totally by volunteers.
