Whether you’re walking, jogging, or running, this event is open to everyone. The 5K route starts and finishes in Falkirk's Helix Park, giving participants the chance to run alongside the iconic Kelpie sculptures. Lit up in mesmerising, colour-changing lights, these towering landmarks create a dazzling spectacle for both participants and spectators.
This family-friendly event is perfect for all ages and children under 5 can join in the fun for free! Gather your friends and family, dress in your brightest neon, and immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of this one-of-a-kind event. Organisers comment: "Dig out your fluorescent clothing and grab everything and anything that glows or flashes, this night time 5K is all about having the boldest and brightest dose of fun!"
Falkirk's 30m tall horse-head statues, also known as The Kelpies have to be among the most beautiful sculptures in the UK and make a wonderful backdrop to these night time runs. Kelpies are mythical creatures from Scottish folklore who love to play at dusk, so organisers are asking you to 'take a leaf out of their book and immerse yourself in a light journey with them'.
Organisers have also put together a brilliant selection of goodies as a reward for your efforts which includes a Supernova buff for keeping you warm on colder days, an LED head torch, finisher's medal and lots more.
