MERCY MOUNTHAWK students made full use of the multi-coloured powdered paint that was doused on participants as part of their colour run.
The secondary school hosted its first ever 5k event of its kind on Friday, as part of Health Promotion Week at the school.
Teachers and students saw the run as a fun way to promote the schools ideals.
The 5k run set off from Mercy Mounthawk around 2:30pm and went out the Bracker O’Regan Road, down by Monavalley and heading back by the Casement railway station to Mounthawk walkway.
It looked like a lot of fun.
