Since the start of the coronavirus pandemic earlier this year, Smash It Events have been following government guidance, medical advice and sporting best practice relating to COVID-19 closely.
We had hoped that postponing our Colour Run until September 2020 would have allowed us to hold the event as ‘normally’ as possible later in the year.
However, even with the recent announcements easing Scotland out of lockdown, then the current localised spike in COVID-19 cases, it’s clear to us that it just won’t be possible for us to organise and deliver the event our runners would have wanted.
So, it is with great regret that we feel we must follow the same course of action taken recently by other Scottish road racing events – like Baxters’ Loch Ness Marathon and Festival of Running, the Edinburgh Marathon Festival and the Scottish Half and 10k – and cancel the 2020 date for The Colour Run.
We realise that this news will be disappointing for everyone, but we do feel it is the best course of action given the continuing uncertainty surrounding sporting events and large gatherings.
We hope you understand the reason for this decision.
A new date of Sunday 11th April 2021 has been arranged. We hope to see all and more at the 2021 Colour Run!
An email has been sent to all attendees.
