There will be change tents and toilets on site to change into your shirts, but please arrive early to allow yourself time to get organised. There is a bag tent available if you have gear that you do not want to take on the run.
The venue carpark running parallel to the sporting grounds is closed from 730am - 12pm to ensure the safety of our participants.
Getting There
The event is being held at Victoria Park/Barrambin in Herston.
The main entrance to the event is from Gilchrist Ave.
If you are driving, there is free street parking around the area, including Gilchrist Ave, but with hundreds of people joining us on the day, it is best to arrive early..There is no parking on site.
Public transport: he venue sits in between Exhibition and Roma Street train stations. It is also very close to Herston Bus station on the Inner Northern Busway. Public transport will be promoted as a viable means of arriving at the event.
Official Proceedings
Our MC Dan Ewing will be kicking off the official proceedings at 900am.
This is your official event briefing so you know where to run and what to expect from the day.
Start time: The race will commence at930am
We will kick off the event with a warm up and couple of giant colour explosions!
Race Route: Starting on the oval in a cloud of chalk, you will head out for a loop of the park before returning to the sporting grounds where you will run a gauntlet of blue and green coloured powder.
Each loop is approximately 2km, so if you are doing 4km or 10km, you will repeat accordingly.
Post-Run fun in the NF Village
Once you cross the finish line you can relax, refuel and relive the fun with friends in the NF Village. You can enjoy LIVE MUSIC, fuel up with food and drink from our food trucks, go in the raffle to win some great prizes, or try your luck spinning our NF "Spin and Win" wheel!
We will also be announcing our top fundraisers on the day, as well as drawing the raffle so make sure you plan to stack around after the race!
What to Bring
The event is messy! So if you have not purchased a running shirt, wear a plain white one on the day or you can purchase one when you arrive. It's also a good idea to bring a packet of wet wipes or a towel for the car ride home.
We strongly suggest a biodegradable option such as Huggies Bio or Tooshies, but we will have some on hand too should you need them.
Wear a pair of shoes that are comfortable to run in, but might need to be washed after the event. You'll receive your white t-shirt on the day, but consider what you'll wear on your bottom half.
Our non-toxic powder does wash out, but we can't guarantee any whites or lighter coloured clothes will come up as good as new after the event!
We will have plenty of food and drink available on the day with coffee van, ice-cream and hot food truck on hand - but it's a good idea to bring your own water as well.
We will have a secure bag drop so bring a bag if you like - a bum-bag is also a great option if you want to keep your phone on you around the course.
lET'S GET ready to conquer NF in colour!
BE SURE TO TAG US ON THE DAY @ctfaustralia
