The CIBC Run for the Cure is back in London for another year

The colour pink will be a common sight in Victoria Park this weekend as the CIBC Run for the Cure makes its return.

For over 20 years, the Run has been gathering Londoners to raise money for breast cancer research.

Along with a five-kilometre run and a one-kilometre walk, those participating can also expect to see a day filled with inspiring sights.

“What they’re going to see is this whole community coming together, it’s like a giant hug,” said Laura Wall, Director for Canadian Cancer Society.
