what time does it start?

the event will run from 7:30am-4.30pm, with staggered start times for each distance.

the event will take place in bute park, cardiff, cf10 3er, with loops starting and finishing in coopers field.

why should i fundraise?

your fundraising will directly help us provide vital mental health support. raising just £100 funds a life-changing therapy session for someone struggling with their mental health.

what is the minimum age?

we’re welcoming little ones as young as 2 to join in, but anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

is the run accessible for people with disabilities?

yes, the ultra fun run is designed to be as accessible and inclusive as possible, and we warmly welcome participants with disabilities. we’ve had people take part using wheelchairs, mobility aids, guides and with a wide range of access needs. if there’s anything you’d like to chat through before signing up, please email us at ultrafunrun@bigmoose.co and we’ll be happy to help.

dogs are welcome on-site at the event, provided they are on a leash, but they won’t be able to take part in the run itself.

what will i receive before the event?

before the event, we’ll send you an event pack with your bib, along with your spotty tee ready for the day.

can i change my distance nearer the time?

we’d recommend sticking to your chosen distance if you can, but we understand that plans can change. if needed, you can move up or down a distance closer to the event. where possible, please give us at least one week’s notice so we can arrange your start time.

can i get a refund on my ticket?

tickets for this event are non-refundable. however, if you’re pregnant and would prefer to join us the following year, just get in touch and we’ll defer your place.

do i have to fundraise?

no, there's no obligation for you to fundraise, but a fundraising page will be set up automatically when you register through enthuse, so you can easily receive donations if you choose.

if my child is running with me, do they need their own entry?

yes, if your child is taking part with you, they’ll need their own entry. please complete one registration with your details and a second with theirs. we also have children’s spotty tees available, so please let us know that they’ll need a children’s top and include their size too.

how much does it cost to register?

the entry fee starts at £25 and varies depending on the distance you choose.

do i have to wear a bigmoose top?

yes, we’re asking everyone to wear one of our bigmoose spotty tees on the day. it helps create that amazing feeling of community, brings everyone together, and shows visible support for the charity and the reason we’re all there. the cost of the top and postage is included in your entry fee, so everything you need is covered. if you already have an affiliated top, such as a running club collaboration top, we’d still ask you to wear one of our original bigmoose spotty tees for the event so we can all be part of it together.

there isn’t any parking on-site, but there are several car parks nearby in the city centre. we’d recommend sophia gardens pay and display or north road pay and display. where possible, we’d also encourage people to walk, cycle or use public transport.

can i change my fundraising goal?

absolutely. just choose the fundraising target you’d like to aim for when you register, and if you decide you’d like to change the amount later, you can simply edit your target directly on your fundraising page.
