Campaign by PROSTATE CANCER UK (RCN 1005541 and in Scotland (SC039332))
There's something for everyone in The Big Golf Race. Choose from the Half Marathon (2 rounds, 36 holes, 13 miles in a day), the Marathon (4 rounds, 72 holes, 26 miles in a day) or even the Ultra Marathon (5.5 rounds, 100 holes, 35 miles in a day).

Story

Myself and 3 of my golfing buddies are doing a 72 hole golf challenge on 19 June in aid of Prostate Cancer UK.

Unfortunately 1 in 8 men are diagnosed in the UK with prostate cancer and many more are affected indirectly. Anything we can do to help improve these statistics can only be good for everyone.

Our 72 hole challenge, as part of the team from King’s Golf Club Inverness, will see the four of us teeing up at 0400 and playing 72 holes, with an anticipated finish time of around 2000. Playing 1 round in a day can sometimes be challenging, so playing 4 isn’t going to be easy but we are 100% committed and fully believe that a little bit of pain to us, in order to help someone in need is well worth the effort.
