Last year I ran my first race with The Color Run, and it became one of my favorite 5Ks. The husband had never raced with me before or ever really so I dragged him along. Nothing says quality time like color everywhere!
Both the pre and post race activities are fun too. Everyone is buzzing with energy, clean, and anticipating the fun to be had. It is one of the few races I have ever been involved with where all the participants have great time. Post race includes more activities, more awesomeness, and of course more color.
Who says fitness as to be boring?
In 2015 The Color Run, also known as the Happiest 5k on the Planet, is back with the Shine Tour!
The Color Run celebrates healthiness, happiness and individuality. Their races are fun for the whole family whether you are a marathon runner or someone who speed walks on the treadmill.
They are shining up the 5k course and finish festival too! Look for a unique Sparkle Zone and killer photo ops on the course. At the finish festival, get ready for confetti cannons, shimmering clouds of color, and more!
Here’s a look at all the Shine coming your way during The Color Run!

They do this here in Boston, too. I have never done it, but a few of my friends have.
Oh what fun. I have been wanting to work towards something and this Color Run might give me the motivation. Thanks for sharing.
my daughter and husband did one of these color runs last year. They had a great time
I did the Color Run in Hershey, PA last year, and it was a BLAST! We had so much fun!
I never heard of this – what a great idea!
Wow what aan awesome run.It looks so fun.
What a cool event. I bet my daughter would be pumped to join in the fun!
I’ve heard about the run but never have participated. It does look like a lot of fun and something my and my girlfriends would enjoy.
My daughter has participated in this even a few times and absolutely loved it.
This looks like a fun race and a great way to get moving together.
I’d love to run Fayetteville, NC with my 7 year old!
I will be racing in Columbus, Ohio – and last year was my first Color Run too! I cannot wait for this year. I walked a lot of my race last year, and this year I want to run the whole course!
The Color Run sounds like so much fun! There are lots of people around here that would take part in something like this, we have races nearly every weekend.
This sounds like fun. Fun for all the family.
I need to check this out for sure. I’ve never done the color run, but I’ve heard great things! I think I’ll look into Providence!
The Color Run is SO much fun! We are doing one this weekend. I can’t wait!
We’re having a Colour Run here in Jamaica at the end of the month:-) I think people are more into the hype of participating in the Run than the actual cause . Its a fun event nonetheless
Coooooollooooorrrr
I would love to win this and do with my daughter :)) In MN
would love to run in Ventura with my son
