Why run on Movember 2019?
The mission of the Movember movement (spread throughout the world) is to raise awareness about men's health, specifically, promoting research into prostate cancer and other cancers that threaten men. A recognizable trademark of the movement is the moustache, which men are supposed to grow in the month of November. In accordance with the movement's mission, a charity Movember run is held every year, the purpose of which is not a competition, but the promotion of the Movember movement, the promotion of a healthy lifestyle and, last but not least, pleasant socializing on the run.
