My review is that it is a case of sexism which does not want male members to join. Even the logo is feminine.

Limiting who they take money off by doing this.
Exactly

and the advert is dumb

"You're invited"

Ummm...no Im not
Have you considered a complaint to the ASA?
No. Most of us don't have the time to bitch, moan, and complain like babies to places like Ofcom to air our grievances.

It would have helped if the Race for Life site had an email address we could ask this question to.

And people accuse me of sexism

For the record I have boycotted Yorkie bars because of their "It's not for Girls" slogan.

Why are you so worried about any of this? Don't you have a life or something?

It's not that important. I mean, now someone is complaining that the logo is too girly? What the hell does that mean?

We have all lost someone to cancer, so why is the race a women exclusive race? :puzzled:

We do not have a Fanny Cancer.

Although we do need to check our balls each week.
lmao Arista, your funny man!

I know but I guess they wanted to limit it to women. There's a Run for Moore race for men, random. :tongue:
Not really random, it's called that because of Bobby MOORE.
I said it was random because I had never heard of the male version before, so I decided to throw it in as a random fact.

I couldn't give a shxt who it was named after.
I think you probably should give a **** about the most inspirational sportsman in British history.

Some women got together and had a think about what would be the best way to make the race stand out from every other race that is out there and thus raise it's profile and the amount of people who take part and in turn raise more money. Have the complainers actually applide to race and been turned down?
