A new glow in the dark run is coming to Bournemouth next year.

Glow Run 5K Bournemouth starts from Bournemouth Pier at 6pm on Saturday, January 28.

The course will see participants run from Bournemouth Pier to just beyond Boscombe Pier and back again.  

BCHA and Round Table Children’s wish are two charities runners can choose to support, however they are also able to raise money for their favourite charity.

All runners will receive a T-shirt, neon accessories, a race guide, race stickers and a medal for taking part in the event.

Organisers Blitz Run say on their website: “As well as having lots of fun, there’s also a brilliant chance of running a great time on the almost entirely flat, out and back course along the promenade.

"Everybody is welcome, so get involved with friends, family and the community”

Registration is now open, although runners will be able to sign up on the day if the race has not already reached full capacity.

Runners under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

Entry costs £20 for adults and £14 for under 16s.
