Enthusiastic runners through the buildings during the Utrecht Science Park Campus Run
On Sunday 13 October, the Utrecht Science Park Campus Run took place. The Utrecht Science Park Campus Run is a challenging Fun Run that goes right through buildings and past highlights on the Utrecht Science Park. Together with the hundreds of enthusiastic participants over various distances, it was a great day with fun, rain, sunshine and great performances.
The Utrecht Science Park Campus Run is organised by Central Events. Participants could choose from a 10 KM run or a 5 KM run. For younger participants, there was a 1 KM kidsrun. The course took sports enthusiasts past and through a number of nice spots of the Utrecht Science Park, such as Olympos Sportcentrum, Grand Café Living (start), the Cambridge Bar, the U-OV bus and tram, the Utrecht Science Park Foundation office and the obstacle course at Olympos.
At the Utrecht Science Park, people work on a healthy, sustainable society every day. Sport and exercise is an essential part of that, which is stimulated by this low-threshold running competition. Besides a healthy and fun day, money was also raised for the official charity of the USP Campus Run, the ALS Netherlands Foundation.
This was a successful edition of the Utrecht Science Park Campus Run with the enthusiasm and perseverance of the participants.
