Held in the heart of Sydney at Wentworth Park Oval

HOW THE EVENT WORKS

With no winners or official times, Conquer NF in Colour is a fun run in every sense of the word.

We have three race options that will cater to everyone – young children, first time runners and seasoned athletes who may welcome a bit more of a challenge. Plus, the course is flat.

Starting on the oval in a cloud of chalk, you will head out for a loop of the the park before returning to the venue where you will run a gauntlet of blue and green coloured chalk (that’s the name of the game after all) water guns and obstacles of tyres – to make you easier to catch! All obstacles are optional and each loop is approximately 2km.

AFTER PARTY AT THE NF VILLAGE

Once the race is over, the fun continues.

You can rock it out to some LIVE MUSIC from our wonderful ambassador, Kevin Sullivan and The Sulli-vans, refuel with on-site food and drink vendors, and watch our top fundraiser be crowned on stage before joining us for a MASSIVE blue and green colour throw at the end!

WHAT DOES YOUR TICKET PRICE INCLUDE?

Your ticket includes entry into any race and afterparty in the NF village.

PLUS you will also score a branded tee to run in, a pair of blue or green sunglasses and 100g of blue and 100g of green chalk to throw at the start of the race!

EVERY DOLLAR raised helps us conquer nf
