Derby MoRun at Markeaton Park
Derby MoRun is a fundraising running event supporting Movember, held at Markeaton Park (postcode DE22 4AA). The event offers multiple distances and a timed finish for all adult and junior races. Movember fundraising covers prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention; participants can add donations or set up fundraising pages after entry.
Race features include full race chip timing with instant results, a finisher headband, a MoRun medal, and drinks and snacks at the finish. The event also awards bonus medals and spot prizes for categories such as fastest runner and best costume. A fancy dress competition and spot prizes are part of the event experience.
Practical information notes that registration is located near the main car park and race packs include a chip-on-bib number and safety pins; participants should display their race number on an outer garment for timing and photography.
