THE organisers of a run to raise funds for cancer research are looking for 10,000 women to make the race's 10th birthday a record breaker.

Cancer Research UK Race For Life in Manchester was being officially launched today, with the organisers hoping for 10,000 women to join the 5km run in Heaton Park on June 8.

Last year's run broke all records with more than 8,000 women taking part.
