Ooredoo Maldives announces new date for its Color Run in Addu City, for Fri, 28 June 2019. The update to the event date was motivated by feedback received from key stakeholders in Addu City, in order to facilitate more runners to be part of this fun filled event.
Ooredoo Color Run Addu was announced earlier this month, in partnership with the Ministry of Youth, Sports & Community Empowerment, as part of Ooredoo’s efforts to expand the run to more parts of the nation. The run aims to promote running as a fun way to achieve a healthy and active lifestyle, and continues to attract record-breaking crowds to participate in the fun-filled 5K.
First held in 2017, Ooredoo Color Run is a simple 5K with lots of color and non-stop fun, which is open for everyone over the age of six. Each kilometre covered during the run is rewarded with a burst of color powder at the color station.
As the run is not a timed event, participants can choose to walk, jog, run or dance to the finish line, where their efforts are celebrated in style with color throws, finisher medals & a fantastic music show. The run also comes with fun awards for the Most Entertaining Runners and the Runners with the Best Costume, with fantastic prizes for the winners.
Similar to the Color Run in Hulhumale’, festivities will be continued throughout the day, starting with a Kite Festival in the morning. Ooredoo Maldives will open registrations for Ooredoo Color Run in Addu soon, through Ooredoo website. Stay tuned for more details via www.ooredoo.mv and its social media channels.
