Prams were pushed along a promenade as staff, committee members and parents went on the run in a coastal town for a worthy cause.
Faces were painted, trainers were laced up and rainbow outfits - including a tutu - were all worn as a charity based pre-school nursery in north Lowestoft received a welcome boost.
A group of 18 runners and walkers completed a 5km challenge at the weekend as 'Run 4 Rainbow' was hailed a success.
Lowestoft Parkrun, a range of rainbow-themed attire illuminated the seafront as the group headed out along the course - with cheerleaders willing them on all the way.
Held on Saturday, as part ofBased on Love Road, Rainbow Day Nursery and pre-school is a parent/carer co-operative that provides care and education for pre-school children with morning and afternoon sessions for children aged one to five.
Chairperson for Rainbow Day Nursery, Chloé Goldsmith - who took part in the run - said: "Our aim is to provide high quality childcare and we're devoted to making a difference to the education of the pre school children in our area."
With 18 runners - made up of staff, committee members, parents and friends of Rainbow - willed on all the way by eight cheerleaders dotted across the route, the group raised £372.70 through an online JustGiving page that is open for another week.
It was the brainchild of parent and committee member Alex Goldsmith.
Mrs Goldsmith added: "I had my little girl in the pram dressed in Rainbow clothes, many runners proudly wore rainbow face paint, while our cheerleaders cheered us all on with their rainbow pompoms and flags."
The group thanked Lowestoft Parkrun, and race director Rob Fawcett for their support.
Jennie Millington, nursery manager, added: "Thank you to everybody for their support with Run 4 Rainbow, whether running, cheerleading or donating, we couldn't do it without you".
