We have been extensively researching into what runners consider important, and sustainability is fast becoming the most important area. Click HERE to see what RunThrough is doing for sustainability.

T-Shirts at events have been a hot topic mainly around them not being a high enough quality to wear on a regular basis. So we have decided to tackle this by offering a RunThrough Kit Technical T-Shirt with a retail value of £22 for £12 with the addition of the event logo printed on the chest.

We can do this with our partner RT Kit as part of a strategic decision to not only raise awareness about the quality of the product but also to counteract the increasing costs incurred in event production in a post-COVID world.

Here at RunThrough we are always looking for likeminded people to join our community. We always value an extra pair of hands and would love for you to come along and help us! From managing stalls at the event village to handing out medals at the finish, our volunteers are a critical part of what makes RunThrough events so special!

Spectators are more than welcome! You can watch many sections of the race from the event village and roads outside of the zoo for free. However, if you’d like to enter the zoo you will require a spectator ticket. Colchester Zoo has reserved a limited number of tickets for friends & family of the runners to visit Colchester Zoo on the day of the race & these will be available to purchase in the few weeks prior to the event.
