The family event, which is in aid of Hartlepool’s Alice House Hospice and sees competitor showered in powdered paint, moved to a new home at West Hartlepool Rugby Club, in Catcote Road, following its postponement last year due to the coronavirus pandemic. We’ll have more pictures and reaction later this week.

The Colour Run returns after missing 2020 because of the coronavirus crisis.
