The eighth annual Mitre 10 Mega Walk is fast approaching, with courses to suit all ages and fitness levels. All proceeds raised will again go to CanTeen and be put towards the many activities and camps it provides for members.
Mitre 10 marketing manager Kerry Meehan said the event had proven a lucrative fundraiser.
"In the last four years we have been supporting CanTeen with this event, we have raised more than $75,000."
She said it had a varied array of participants, from the very young to the young at heart - and finely-tuned athletes to those with physical challenges.
The Hawke's Bay Today sponsored event starts at Mitre 10 Mega, Hastings at 7.30am on Sunday, November 8.
