"Put your feet to the beat" and join The Collective's team in the Sky Radio Run in the Amsterdamsebos on Friday 7th September.


This event will be attended by 1500 participants from local advertising and media agencies as well as client companies. It’s an excellent networking opportunity if you're not too precious about your appearance and don't mind sharing a bit of body odour!


Activities commence with registration at 12noon and conclude at 20:00 after dinner and a party. The run itself starts at 15:30.

For full details see www.skyradiorun.nl


If you'd like to run with The Collective (we'll kit you out in team t-shirts)


There aren't many places left, so get your skates on!
