Event overview
Jay's Aim Family Colour Run is a charity fun run held at Newton Abbot Rugby Football Club's Rockerhayes ground. The cross country course runs over the three rugby and training pitches and includes five sponsored colour stations where participants are doused with coloured powder.
Entrants can choose from the following distances:
- 1.5 km course with five colour stations
- 3 km course with five colour stations
The course is uneven in places and may be wet and muddy. Competitors are asked to wear old or white clothing as the powder may leave stains. The colour powder is made mainly from corn starch and is described as environmentally friendly. Sunglasses or glasses are strongly recommended to protect the eyes; a small number of sunglasses will be available to buy on the day.
Registration takes place on the day at the Jay's Aim marquee on the main pitch, close to the start and finish area. Competitors must register before competing to collect a run number and provide emergency contact information. Toilet facilities are located next to the Newton Abbot RFC marquee. A variety of takeaway food and drink options will be available for purchase; these are not included in the ticket price.
The event is marshalled, fully insured, and medical cover is provided by Omega Medical. Several defibrillators will be positioned around the course. Organisers encourage competitors to be medically fit and to consider cardiac screening before entering.
Ticket information: adult ticket £11, junior ticket £9. Both include a finishers medal and run number. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
