Wicklow NEON Run

Wicklow Sports Partnership hosted one of 5 flagship events in Ireland for the European week of sport on Bray Seafront on September 28^th.  Night time events took place all over Europe at the same time to mark the culmination of a host of activities to celebrate the European week of Sport.

The #BEACTIVE Night culminated in a 3km NEON family run along Bray seafront with over 250 participants braving the elements on the night.  Participants received neon t-shirts and neon face painting before the start of the run where they ran through the blackout tunnel to get the full effect of their bright colours.

Bray truly was a hive of activity on the night with Bray rowing club hosting a series of Rows at Dusk, Yoga drop in sessions before the race and a POUND fitness class on the Bandstand.  The epic Ecotrail race was also finishing on Bray seafront that evening with participants from all over Europe taking part in the trail running event.  Supporters could take part in the Ecotrail Experience, which consisted of stationary bikes that brought them through the route and sights of the 80km Ecotrail.

This was a fantastic active event to celebrate the European week of Sport on Bray seafront.  Thank you to everyone who came down to celebrate with us!
