Take a beautiful and iconic venue such as the Bournemouth Pier, wait until dusk, get the family together (and we mean everyone – grandparents, uncles, aunties, parents, kids, friends!), dig out the flourescent clothing and grab everything and anything that glows or flashes.

The Supernova 5K event is the perfect way to get involved in the Bournemouth Marathon Festival with your family and friends, whilst taking in the atmosphere and fun. Starting on Bournemouth Prom and finishing near the Bournemouth Marathon Festival Hub in the Lower Gardens, this beautiful coastal route allows runners the rare opportunity to run along the iconic Bournemouth Pier, which is lit up at dusk to create a beautiful spectacle for participants and spectators alike!

 By taking on the Supernova 5K, you’ll be raising much needed funds for Sands and we will support you with: 

• Support from our Fundraising team to help you achieve your target.
• Sands fundraising pack
• Free Sands t-shirt/running vest (or both!)
• Pre-event support from our lovely Challenge Events Team
• Friday Shout-Out on Facebook
• Sands' Cheer Sticks and Collection Tins
• Sands Superstar Thank You

Through taking on this 5K you’ll not only be able to enjoy the sea air but will be raising much needed money to help us prevent more babies from dying and meet the growing need for our support services
