What is the Inflatable 5k?

The Inflatable 5K is the world's largest and best Inflatable 5K obstacle run. This unique Inflatable obstacle course run includes 32 obstacles over the 5km run and attracts over 55,000 runners each year!

The event is family friendly and open to ages five and above. You can choose from 20 locations and 4 distances; 2.5K, 5K, 10K and 15K.

By taking part in the Inflatable 5k and fundraising for Blue Cross you will be changing the lives of pets and their people in need across the UK.

A fantastic challenge to take on your own, with a friend or even as a team with lots of fun to be had whichever way you choose.

Don’t just take our word for it, here’s what Mary, Rob, Freddy, Nicola, Daisy and Thomas had to say about their team challenge.

Daisy said "We had so much fun doing this inflatable 5K challenge. Some parts were tricky but we were in hysterics the entire way round. We couldn't tell if our legs were jelly from the challenges or all the laughing!"
