The Rainbow Run 2025 with WeAreFearless

Sun 8th June 2025

A group of people runs through a forest with tall trees as sunlight filters through. The runners, wearing various athletic gear and backpacks, follow a path, heading towards the bright sun in the distance. Some runners have on hats and jackets, and the atmosphere seems brisk. A group of people dressed in vibrant, colorful athletic wear pose together under a rainbow balloon arch. They appear to be participating in a festive fun run or event, with numbers pinned to their shirts and joyful expressions on their faces. Two people jogging on a forest trail, with sunlight streaming through the trees. The person in the foreground is wearing a purple and blue shirt and black shorts, while the person in the background is further ahead and slightly blurred. The scene is calm and serene. A person with curly hair is smiling and holding up a smartphone to take a selfie. They are wearing a colorful tutu, a 'FEARLESS' t-shirt, and have rainbow face paint. There is a banner with colorful graphics in the background. A person wearing colorful running shorts and a purple shirt runs along a gravel path through a forest. The sun filters through the trees, casting dappled light onto the pathway. The runner appears joyful and immersed in the natural surroundings.

Another person in the background is capturing the moment. A person is riding a bike on a long, straight dirt path that cuts through a dense forest. Sunlight filters through the trees casting dappled shadows on the road. The scene appears serene and the path stretches off into the distance. A group of people are gathered in a forested area, some wearing colorful athletic clothing and race bibs. One person in a yellow shirt and cap appears to be giving instructions or speaking to the group. Trees and other participants are visible in the background.

Three people are jogging on a forest trail during sunrise. The light filters through the trees, casting long shadows on the ground. Two of them are in dark clothing and one is in a teal top, and they run in the same direction, surrounded by tall, bare trees. A group of people, seen from the back, run along a dirt trail through a forest. The tall trees on either side of the path have sparse leaves, indicating late autumn or early winter. The runners are spaced out, with some further along the trail and others closer to the front. Two runners in turquoise shirts celebrate while running a race on a forested trail in the morning sunlight. They hold hands and raise their arms in joy. Other runners are seen behind them on the same path. The scene is bright and filled with energy.

Organiser's Description

Think of your most memorable running events… what was it that made them special? Was it a beautiful location? The most incredibly friendly Marshalls? A totally unique, special medal? Or running with the best group of people?

Laura and I think that all these things combined are what produce the kind of events that create really special memories. So we are over the moon to announce that 2024 will see Rasselbock join forces with We Are Fearless once again for the Rasselbock Rainbow Run ❤

On the 8th of June 2025, we’d like to make Sherwood Pines once again shine so bright, it’ll be visible from space. There will be prizes for the most colourful runners, rainbows on faces, and rainbows in the aid station.

The event will follow the usual formula at Sherwood. There will be 6 hours to run as many 5.79km laps through the beautiful forest as you’d like. You need only complete one lap to collect your memento, or you can keep going all day.

We promise it’ll be an event to remember and can’t wait to see you there!!

Course Details

The route sets off from our own dedicated Race HQ area as we head into the forest weaving through the Pines. The route is on a mixed trail of forest floor, muddy areas, and packed gravel paths. Enough of a mix to keep the laps interesting. There are some hills included in the route for free, but nothing that you cannot manage.

(It is possible that this could change before the event as Sherwood pines is a working forest and there are planned fellings in 2025 on this route).

What's Included

You'll receive your pre-race briefing via email roughly ten days before the event date that will be packed full of all of the information that you may need to know. The event will have full first aid supplied by Nottingham Search and Rescue.

  • Full onsite first aid
  • Fully signposted route
  • Huge fully stocked aid staion at race HQ
  • All the snacks and drinks that you could imagine
  • Amazing support from Team Rasselbock and other runners
  • WeAreFearless team making everything even better

How to Get There

The nearest train stations are Mansfield and Retford. Mansfield has a public bus to the county park roughly every 15 minutes (Bus No. 14, 15 or 15A to Archway Road or Sherwood Pines). This does vary at the weekend and it is always best to check the timetables before booking. After the bus, there is around a 1-mile walk into the forest to the start line. Usually, on a Sunday morning, it is best to pre-book a taxi to the start line. If you are staying overnight before the event and using public transport, then I would recommend looking at places to stay in Edwinstone, Clipstone, or Ollerton. All are a very short taxi ride from the forest.

Parking

There is a large car park with Sherwood Pines Forest which we are permitted to use. There is a charge for the car park which we, unfortunately, cannot offer a discount on.

As always we encourage people to car share or use public transport as much as possible when coming to our events. Not only does this mean we help the environment a little but it also means that people get to know each other a little more and you can share the costs of petrol and the car park!

If you are looking for a lift or have space in your car, then make sure you post in our Team Rasselbock Facebook group to see who else is heading that way.

Location

The park will be open from 8am, and from the car park area you will need to head towards the visitor center (the only buildings on the site). With the center on your right and GO Ape on your left, keep walking down the pathway until you see the large Rasselbock flags at the Race HQ.
