On Friday evening, November 22, 2024 BodyRun and IJ-Run are jointly organizing the RW Utrecht Night Trail Run for the fifth time. Running in the dark with a headlamp on unlit paths, along a partially rolling course interspersed with steep climbs. How exciting can it be?
There will also be a 5k "Fun Run." The Fun Run is a fun experience for the whole family! It's an easy run in the dark, with a completely paved course. You'll run a figure eight over and along the Nedereindseplas lake. This unique 5k route is ideal for beginning runners, assuming you can run 5k in an hour. The 10k run is almost entirely flat and paved, but it will be in pitch darkness. Participants are responsible for providing their own lights!
And then of course there will be a fantastic afterparty that will continue until midnight and will be provided by Skipiste Nieuwegein.

About the environment
The area surrounding the ski slope in Nieuwegein offers a unique setting for trail running in an urban environment with surprising natural beauty. While Nieuwegein is known for its modern look, the area surrounding the slope offers a mix of green parks, water features, and challenging slopes. The ski slope itself, with its artificial hills, provides an interesting additional challenge for trail runners looking to test their climbing abilities. The elevation changes in this area are rare in this otherwise flat region, making it a perfect place to work on your strength and technique.
Furthermore, you can enjoy peaceful, green trails in the surrounding parks and along the canals, perfect for developing your speed and endurance. The combination of urban elements, water features, and green spaces makes the area around the ski slope in Nieuwegein a diverse and surprising spot for trail running, suitable for both beginners and experienced runners.
