King Charles makes surprise appearance at Sandringham parkrun
The King joined runners at the Move Against Cancer event as he continues his own cancer treatment
The King has paid a surprise visit to joggers at a local Sandringham parkrun organised in partnership with the Move Against Cancer charity.
Charles attended the event on Saturday morning as a spectator, surprising the Sandringham runners for the second year in a row and ahead of World Cancer Day next week.
The parkrun, organised in partnership with Move Against Cancer's 5K Your Way group, was set up to support those living with and beyond cancer, as well as families, friends and healthcare professionals.
Charles has been receiving cancer treatment as an outpatient since early February 2024.
In December last year, the head of state announced in a video message that his cancer treatment is being reduced in the new year, adding the "good news" was down to early diagnosis, successful care and following "doctors' orders".
The 5KYW run takes place on the last Saturday morning of every month and encourages anyone impacted by cancer to walk, jog, run, cheer or volunteer at more than 120 parkrun events across the UK and Ireland on the last Saturday of each month.
Parkrun was founded in 2004 and, more than 20 years on, hundreds of thousands of people across 22 countries and five continents take part in free, weekly, timed five-kilometre running events each weekend in parks around the world.
