FAQ
Is the Color Fun Run/Walk 5K a timed race?
No, the Color Fun Run is not timed and awards are given. Why? Instead, participants are encouraged to slow down so they can be doused with Holi powder in several areas throughout the route and enjoy scenic, historic houses with various Victorian architecture at their own pace. The shirt with color powder, the giveaways and fun is your reward!
For those interested in a chip timed race only, please sign up for our TIMED 5K.
Is there a discount if I want to sign up for both races?
YES! We offer a special Combo price if both the Timed 5K (full price) and the Color Run (receive up to 75% off) are paid for at the same time. Since this allows the participant to enjoy the Color Run at event cost, Combo race participants will receive one shirt (same design for both races) and one swag bag with this registration.
Is the Color powder permanent?
We provide easy instructions on how to permanently preserve your new, colorful shirt. If you don't want to preserve or have permanent color, the color powder will fade or wash out.
Can my younger child run/walk alongside me in the Color Fun Run?
Children age 10 and under are free! This is a stroller friendly race too, so yes, feel free to bring the little's.
Why isn't the Kid's Run free?
Every participant gets an event shirt and swag bag, and what kid doesn't want that?
The Kids Run is a 1/4 mile race and geared for kids ages 10 and under who want to compete for a medal! Top five finishers get a medal. Participants must have a sibling or adult present.
How can students register as a team or group?
To register, first member checks the 'Join a Team' option on the registration page, creates/names their group and pays their portion of the team fee (25%.) Following team members search for the Team/group name and each register individually.
Team option is only available for ages 11-18. This event option is priced at a very reasonable cost to encourage plenty of competition.
Maximum 5 students per team. All team members must be registered and paid before race day to compete for prizes. Best four times per team determine placement for awards, so at least 4 team members must complete the course to compete for medals.
