Sport Lancaster is hosting a 4km Rainbow Run, taking place on Wednesday 11 March, in partnership with Lancaster University Running and Athletics Club (LURAC).
The run costs £3.50 to enter, with all proceeds being donated to Barnardo’s Children’s Charity, to support the important work they do.
The event is open to all ages and fitness levels, with everyone being encouraged to join in, whether they are walking, jogging or running. All participants are requested to wear their favourite colours for the run, with a rainbow-themed fancy dress competition also taking place on the day, with prizes for the best dressed.
Registration begins at 1:00pm at the Sports Centre, followed by a pre-run briefing, so please arrive with plenty of time. The run will then begin at 1:30pm, with marshals guiding the way around the route, which uses the Woodland Walk and campus paths, finishing back at the Sports Centre.
Parking and toilet facilities will be available on the day for participants, subject to the University’s parking policy.
Please note: Anyone with any pre-existing medical conditions must carry appropriate medication with them on the run. The decision whether or not to run is left to the discretion of the individual and they run at their own risk.
Tickets are available to purchase before the event, or on the day. Please be aware that places fill up quickly, so get your tickets before they run out! For more information, please email [email protected] or visit the registration page to book your place.
