Join Walk the Walk at The MoonWalk Edinburgh and you will be helping to raise money and awareness for vital breast cancer causes in Scotland.
This will be a night to remember when 12,000 women and men pound the streets of Edinburgh in their decorated bras... it could also be the night that you take your first step to being fitter and healthier and making a difference to the lives of many. In 2007 we raised over £2 million... with your help we can make an even greater difference in 2008
What we do for you!
This year will be the 3rd MoonWalk in Scotland and with the iconic pink tent to keep the elements at bay, more than 30,000 walkers have taken the first step to a healthier lifestyle
On the night, you will be feasting on pasta and rice to keep you going, listening to great music and uniting in our celebration all within our unique pink tent! You will find plenty of toilets and water on the route and a team of smiling faces giving out medals to welcome you home!
Walk the walkers do it in bras!
Wearing bras is Walk the Walk's unique trademark, the girls and yes the guys too, all Walk the Walk in decorated bras and whilst it is not the normal sight for a Saturday night in Edinburgh... it is a sight to behold and one that succeeds in not only raising awareness but millions of pounds for vital breast cancer causes...so be brave andget creative! Along with your bra, we’ll be giving you lots of tips on how to cover your bits... and... what looks hot and what really is not!

" Well I did it - completed my first ever half marathon and feel really pleased with myself! My friend and I crossed the finish line at 3hrs, 22mins & 33secs which we were very pleased with! I also wanted to let you know about our experience on the final leg of our journey home to the west of Edinburgh. Having got off a night bus we still had about a further 10-15 minute walk when a black cab pulled up alongside us, the driver just about to finish his shift. Asking us where we were now headed to he turned his meter off, told us to jump in and ran the 2 of us right home to our doors! He wanted to do his bit to thank us for ours in supporting such a worthwhile cause - totally restoring faith in human nature and not least of all in Edinburgh taxi drivers who generally come in for a fair bit of stick! It really rounded the night off for us and I feel is worthy of a mention. Keep up the good work and I look forward to next years event. " Gill

" This really is a great event and we want to say a massive thank you to all the crew and volunteers without whom the event could not happen. The whole evening was fantastically well organised and the cheers and encouragement from the marshals really did help a great deal. " Margaret

" Hi to Nina and all the Walk the Walk team A great big thank you for a great night. I walked the full moon with my daughter Vikki. We loved the route and everyone all the way round was so happy. We could not do the walks without all the smiles and encouragement from all the volunteers along the way. This was my fourth walk and Vikki’s third but our first in Edinburgh. Edinburgh was the best one of all!! In reply to the “lonely lady” on the walk in London this year I felt very sad when I read her experience of the night. I did my first walk on my own but was never lonely with so many people united in a challenge to raise money for breast cancer. We always chat to people on their own but if they have ear phones in they give the impression they want to be alone with their thoughts and focused on their challenge. Thank you all for all your hard work. " Christine
