Color Me Curious

Is this event kid-friendly? 
Absolutely! We have distances available for participants of all ages. 

Is this event stroller-friendly?
Yes! The events will take place entirely on the Dutchess Rail Trail 

Are the runs timed?
These are UNTIMED fun runs. They are open to all paces, levels, and abilities, including walkers and children.  

How do the shirts run?
The shirts are 100% cotton, which will hold the color the best; however, they tend to shrink. We recommend sizing up if you are unsure.    

I signed up but can't participate. Can I get a refund? 
We are, unfortunately, unable to offer refunds. However, all race proceeds are being donated directly to the Maria Fareri Children's Hospital & The Children's Home of Poughkeepsie.
