runNTU 2016
21 January 2016
On Sunday 17 April we will be holding our annual 5km and 1.5km fun run around the NTU Clifton campus.
The day will include musical entertainment, bouncy castles and loads of runners wearing fancy dress (optional, but we have prizes for the best costume). Registration for the race is between 11:00-12:30 with the race starting at 13:00.
Last year the multi–terrain event attracted 350 staff, students and alumni of all ages and we expect the event to be even more popular this year.
Thanks to the generous sponsorship from UPP Ltd, 100% of entry fees from the race go to the John van Geest Cancer Research Centre’s vital work. This also applies to money which people raise for us through JustGiving. If you are considering fundraising to make a difference to cancer patients in Nottingham and throughout the world please take a look at the John van Geest website.
Students at Trent TV produced a roundup of the 2015 event which you can view here.
For 2016 we have introduced a new entry option – if you chose to enter the 5km run and set up a JustGiving page you can enter for free providing you raise over £50 by Wednesday 13 April. Simply select the ‘charity option' to book and follow the instructions provided.
