Route information
Starting off in a sea of foam, this 2.5k course gives runners the chance to take on each bubble station twice, with runners completing 2 laps to total 5k.
After emerging from the sea of foam you take on the 4 coloured bubble stations, where epic foam cannons create a 4ft bubble bath.
Entrants will get really bubble-y and potentially wet so you might want to bring a change of clothes and towels to mop up the multicoloured bubbles!
What's included
- Official event T-shirt
