An explosion of colour and movement

Over 200 students and staff from The University of Edinburgh and Heriot-Watt University took part in the inaugural Active Wellbeing Colour Run.

The free event, which took place at the Heriot-Watt campus on Wednesday 20 March, brought students and staff from both Universities together to run, jog or walk, 5km amongst an explosion of colour.

Designed as an inclusive and welcoming event, the event was untimed, but participants were able to time themselves and go for a PB if they desired.

Thank you to all the students and staff from across both institutions who supported the event and made it such an enjoyable day for all those that participated.
