The 4th edition of the ‘Movember La Ultra’ is all set to happen on November 23rd and 24th. This event is supported by GoAthlos and aims to create awareness and raise funds for men’s health issues, especially prostate cancer. Movember is an annual campaign held during November, where participants grow moustaches to spark conversations about men’s health.
The name ‘Movember’ is a blend of the words ‘moustache’ and ‘November’. This year, the event has set a goal to raise Rs 1 lakh. The funds will be donated to the Cancer Unit at St Ann’s Hospital in Kazipet to support prostate cancer patients.
The ultra-run will cover a distance of 130 km. The route begins at Keesara ORR and ends at St Ann’s Hospital Cancer Unit, Kazipet. Participants will run this long stretch to show their commitment to the cause and spread awareness about men’s health.
