This year’s annual Colour Dash exceeded all records with over  400 runners taking part on the 2km course around the fields of Mead Open Farm in Bedfordshire.

The event which was inspired by the ancient Hindu festival of Holi, when coloured powder is thrown at passing runners, has grown year on year and has since become a popular attraction for all ages at the farm in Leighton Buzzard, raising over £6000 for local disadvantaged children.

The charity would like to thank everyone who took part and donated, and particularly Mead Open Farm who provided free entry to their play farm after the race.
