Welcome to Starlight Walk 2010
Are you ready for the ultimate girls night out? Join 2,000 women under the stars at midnight on Saturday 22nd May for a half marathon walk (approx 13 miles) in aid of the Peace Hospice. Book your place and why not ask your family and friends to join in and let's make this the best night Watford has ever seen!
There will also be additional new entertainment at the Starlight Walk in 2010 adding to the great atmosphere.
(Latest news: Please note that we have had to change the date of the Starlight Walk from Saturday 12th June to Saturday 22nd May as a consequence of England being drawn to play their opening football world cup game on the original date. The safety of our walkers has been the main factor behind this decision.
All walkers who have already registered prior to the date change will automatically be entered for the revised date and refunds are available for those people who can't make the new date).
This event raised around £200,000 for the Hospice in 2009, helping to provide more care to more patients than ever before. The Peace Hospice cares for people across South West Hertfordshire living with a life limiting or terminal illness and supports their families. The Hospice needs to raise over £3 million in charitable income alone this year as all the care it provides is free. So please get your trainers on and help to make this our best ever Starlight Walk.
Watch our 2010 promotional trailor below:-
The walk starts at midnight, from the West Herts College, Cassio Campus, Langley Road, Watford, passing through the High Street, Bushey Arches, West Watford and Croxley Green, then back through a candle lit section of Cassiobury Park with the final stretch taking walkers through Watford before returning to the finish point where your well earned medal and breakfast buttie will be waiting for you.
The route will be marshalled and there will be a number of toilet stops and water stations along the way - "View the Route".
