Color Run
I am signed up for the "Color Run" in Columbus OH on July 21... It is nicknamed the "Happiest 5K". Some of us from Pittsburgh are joining up with some friends from South Bend IN to form a team. Has anyone ever done a Color Run? It sounds like so much fun, really looking forward to it. Here's a link for more info...

More about the Color Run...
:)
FROM THE COLOR RUN WEBSITE...
What is the Color Run?
The Color Run is a one of a kind experience that is less about speed and more about enjoying a color crazy day with your friends and family. Our events, are all about people of all different speeds, ages, shapes, and sizes toeing the start line. Whether you are a casual morning mall walker or an Olympic athlete, the 3 miles of the Color Run course will be the most enjoyable real estate you’ve traveled in a VERY long time. You will love this Color Dash of fun!
How does it work?
The Color Run pretty much has 2 SIMPLE rules. 1. White shirts (any mostly white T will work great) mandatory at the start line and 2. Color plastered EVERYTHING at the finish! Runner/walkers begin the 5k at the start line like a brand new pristine coloring book, they end looking like they fell into a Willy Wonka… tie dyed… vat of colored goodness.
What is the Color?
Each kilometer of the event is associated with a designated color. 1k is yellow, 2k is blue, 3k is green, 4k is pink, and the 5k finish is a “Color Extravaganza.” As the runners/walkers hit the Kilometer COLOR RUN Zones, they will be blitzed by our volunteers, sponsors, and staff with COLOR. The color is a special “elf made” recipe of magical color dust. All products are 100% natural and safe. You can eat the stuff if you’d like (we have tried it and don’t suggest it, it is surprisingly high in calories and leaves a chalky aftertaste).
What about the finish line?
I think we can safely say our finish line is the best post-5k party on the PLANET. After the finish, participants are encouraged to stick around, get Down, and see exactly how much COLOR their individual person can contain. We will have bands, food, color, and festivities that will make your color powdered head spin.
