The Blue Run is back at the Etihad for 2023
We can’t wait to see you all again!
Taking place on Saturday 25th March, we have two distance options for our fans to choose from.
Your mini blues may enjoy taking on our 2.5km route whilst our 5km option offers more of a challenge.
It’s your choice to run, walk or dance your way around the route.
Our Blue Run route will take you from the Etihad Stadium to the City Football Academy, whilst being covered in blue powder along the way!

Fans can choose to walk, run or dance around the route, choosing a distance of 2.5km or 5km.

There's a pre-race warm up and entertainment to get you ready to be covered in glory!
Prefer to run at home? No problem! If you want to have your own Blue Run and choose a distance of 5, 10, or even 15km we will send you a pack in the post!
Some runners might want to push themselves even further, running a set distance in the build up to the Blue Run and finishing their challenge on event day – it’s your run, your way.
All registration fees will include an event t-shirt*, medal, and training support.
We will have a range of competition prizes available including our ‘Bluest Fan’ and ‘Top Fundraiser’.
