WITH regard to the article 'Race for life runners under starter's orders', (February 23), why are we now having an evening event on Wednesday July 14?

It would have been my fifth race after having breast cancer. My family and friends and colleagues from Asda all come with me. Sundays were wonderful for people to come and support us from young to old.

The event has got bigger and better but I'm sure this is a great mistake. At 7.30pm people will be tired, and I will be at work, oh dear.
