In partnership with the Great Run Company, UoM Sport is hosting a 2.5km and 5km event at Platt Fields. It doesn’t matter if you have never taken part in an organised run before or if you are a seasoned runner this event is for everyone.

Once registered you will receive further event day information, have access to training plans and support, and hear first hand about future PurpleWave events.
