The Color Run, also known as the Happiest 5k on the Planet, is a unique paint race that celebrates healthiness, happiness and individuality. Toss dyed corn starch all over the place and dance at the color festival when you’re done. — Swag bag with shirt, dye and temp tattoos — Four color stations during run — Color festival at end of run — Music, dance-off and lots of photo opportunities I went for an early check-in at the convention center to grab my swag bag which contained at t-shirt, headband, wristband, runner number and temp tattoos. This saved time on race day. As you run there are color stations that stack on the dyed corn starch until you look like a unicorn threw up a rainbow on your face. At the end there is a color festival where they play music, giveaway freebies and give out even more dye. I stayed for about 5 dye tossings and was covered from head to toe by the finish. Bring a trash bag for your clothes and cover your car in a sheet because its messy.
