No Scottish one? It looks great fun, but Manchester is just too long a drive. Maybe if they get a good turn out there will be more UK dates next year.

This sounds like awesome fun! but sadly i am in Aberdeen so too far away for me aswell.
I only took up running about three months ago, i absolutely love it, but i don't think i am anywhere near ready to start taking part in proper events yet! I would love to have taken part in tough mudder aswell.

It's coming to England-not the UK. Sorry for the rant but as an English person now living in Scotland, this sort of thing drives me mad. Why aren't they doing it in Edinburgh or Glasgow too?

This! It makes me so mad when organisations advertise things as "coming to the UK" or when bands announce that they'll be including the UK in their tour, when what they actually mean is that they're coming to/touring in England. Not Scotland, Not Wales, not Ireland, just England. /end rant

Hopefully if it's a success they'll decide to include more areas next year the colour run looks so much fun! I'd love to be able to take part!

Steady on!

It's a common misconception by those outside the UK, that the UK is England, and to some, just London! Yes the UK is made up of not only England, but Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. So fair rant, but why not use that and complain to the company organising the event?

Only if they put a "U" in "Color"

Lol you beat me to it
And I totally agree, UK isn't just England :grumble:

As a previous Londoner- I confess that I too believed that London was the centre of the universe. I used to think that if you travelled to Alton Towers, you'd drop off the end of the earth. It's only now, living in Scotland that i realise how annoying this sort of thing is. Mind you, as I walk my dogs through my quaint fishing village, admiring the sea- I wouldn't go back to London for a million pounds!!

With property prices as they are a million wouldn't buy you anywhere anyway!

Too right!!!!!

I lived in London for a good 10 years and while me and my sis got lucky when it came to buying house (right time right price) neither of us would go back. The cost of living and the pace of life is too much. We did do well when we sold up :bigsmile:

I'm doing a colour run in Bristol next month, 19th May to be precise. Can't wait, looks like so much fun!!
