Event details

Friday 20 September 2024, 11am - 3pm

Starting at The Sqaure

Come join us for this year's WELCOME Colour Run!

Is your usual run becoming a bit samey? Fancy a bit more ‘colour’ during your run? Want to see more of the uea campus? Then this event is for you! Starting from the Square, going around the meadow and past the Ziggurats and back to outside the LCR to finish (or twice if you fancy it!).

The event is open to everyone and we endeavour to make it as accessible as possible. If you require further information or assistance, please email studentsport@uea.ac.uk.

Timings:

The event is on Friday 20th September, registration from 11:00am, warm up at 11:30am and the first run starting at 11:45am or earlier. The first 300 participants who register will receive a FREE colour run t-shirt!

Tickets:

The free ticket is for anyone who wants to participate in the run and use their own clothes (you must be willing to have these clothes stained as part of the event). You can join us as a Club, Society, group or individually (student or staff); everyone is welcome in this historic event.
You will still be able to turn up to the event if you haven't claimed a ticket beforehand

The Route:

The route ranges from 3 - 5km depending on how much you would like to challenge yourself. However far you run, you are guaranteed to finish the run covered in paint. As the event is for everyone you are welcome to sprint, jog or walk!
