What is a color run?

A color run is an exciting one mile event where you get showered in a rainbow of color as you run past each of the checkpoints.

 

Do I have to run?

Only if you want to! You can walk, jog, crawl, skip, run, fly, cartwheel, somersault, crabwalk, inchworm and anything else your creative mind can think of!

 

Can anyone come?

Yes! This is an open invite event and anybody from the community can participate. Just be sure to register on the home page by April 20th.

 

Will the color ruin clothes or running shoes?

The “color” mostly washes out after the event. However, as with anything dirty, the sooner the gear gets washed the better. Dust off all excess powder before washing with water. Wash your colored gear separately and use cold water. Oxiclean, or a similar product, will work wonders. We suggest wearing items that you wouldn’t mind getting colorful. If you would like to preserve the color in your running shirt, we suggest spraying it with vinegar and ironing it when you get home. This is the most likely way the shirt will retain its coloring.
