Over 80 students and staff took part in TU Dublin's Annual Turkey Trot which took place on the Blanchardstown, Grangegorman and Tallaght campuses between 2-4 December.

TU Dublin's Healthy Campus, together with TU Dublin Sport, welcomed seasoned runners and beginners to take part in the 3km run/walk. The run celebrated the end of the Couch-to-5km walk or jog series and participants could approach the run competitively or just for fresh air and fun.

All three events enjoyed clear blue skies and a cheerful atmosphere. Participants were treated to plenty of spot prizes and tea, coffee and sandwiches to help warm up afterwards.

TU Dublin offers a couch to 5k programme to staff and students twice per year, one per semester which culminates in a fun run on campus. Keep an eye on the Healthy Campus page at the start of each semester to sign up.
