Enter Eston’s 5km Colour Run
Registration starts at noon on the day of the race, Saturday, 31 January.
JOIN the second edition of the Eston ‘Dekade’ Colour Run at the Beaumont Eston Farmers’ Club in Eston on Saturday, 31 January.
The inaugural event in February last year attracted more than 800 participants and their families from around KwaZulu-Natal, and its sequel promises to be even bigger and better.
Drawing inspiration from The Colour Run, which started in the US in January 2012 and is known as the “Happiest 5K on the Planet”, this fun 5km paint race will be devoted to celebrating health, happiness and giving back to the Eston community. All proceeds will go towards the Eston Primary School.
The run will start at 3pm, and runners will be covered with powder paint at each kilometre’s end as they make their way from start to finish. The Eston Beaumont Farmers’ Club’s fields will be transformed into a festival of music, colour and fun with food and beverages on sale throughout the afternoon and evening, as well as kiddies’ entertainment on offer.
Popular Durban band, The Kickstands, will perform from 5pm, and a DJ afterwards will take the party on late into the night.
Runners, joggers and walkers can sign up at www.roag.co.za. Entries cost R150, and although at an increased cost, late entries are also welcome. Entries for children aged five to 12 years cost R120. Registration starts at noon.
