Weather: The event will take place rain or shine. In the unlikely event of severe weather, stay tuned to our website/Facebook page for updates. We’ll take precautions as recommended by the National Weather Service, but only in extreme cases will the event bepostponed or cancelled. Your safety is our number one priority--your fun is our close second.

Water: Water will be provided at the finish line area and at a water station on the course. Feel free to bring a bottle to carry throughout the run or to have at the beginning.

Please Note: There are no lockers or bag drop facilities. Plan to keep your belongings with you at all times. Before the race begins, find a meeting spot for everyone in your group. If anyone is missing, please head to the merchandise tent. Lost items will also be turned in to the merchandise tent.

The CourseWaves of approximately 500 runners will leave the starting line area. Waves will leave every 4-6 minutes until all runners have been released.

start line

There will be multiple color stations throughout the course. Please Do not stop in the color stations. This will prevent a bottleneck for runners behind you. As with any substance, you’ll want to keep it out of your eyes and mouth. Many runners choose to wear glasses to protect their eyes and a bandana to keep the color out of their mouths. We sell snazzy Color Vibe bandanas that are great options! The color we use is made in the USA and 100% safe and biodegradable.

After crossing the finish line, please grab a bottle of water and clear the area so you do not block other runners coming through the finish line. At the finish line party we will have color throws taking place every 10-20 minutes. This is where you will want to use your color pack! Extra color packs will be available for sale on a first-come, first-serve basis.

While entering the Village you may be strategically directed to parking lots with available parking. Lots 1-4 will have shuttles transporting runners to the staging area every 10 minutes. Lots 5-7 are located within walking distance of the staging area. Color Vibe guides will be in green shirts at each of the parking lots, to ensure that you make it to the staging area. Refer to the Parking Map on the Next page.

We have a strict No Dancing policy. NOT. What fun would that be? That’s why we encourage dancing and skipping to your heart’s delight, especially

at the finish line party. If you decide to walk, please be respectful of those behind you and stay to the right. This will allow runners to pass easily on

the left.

Wear clothes you don't mind getting color on. Our color washes out

well, but we don't guarantee that it will all come out.

For individuals with light colored hair, we recommend using a leave-in

conditioner or a light oil (coconut or olive) before the event. Some of

the colors can take a few days to fully wash out of your hair,

particularly if you have bleached or blonde hair.

We recommend bringing something to protect your car for the ride

home. A towel or garbage bag to sit on will do the trick and will

prevent your car from getting as colorful as you will be.

The sooner you clean up, the easier the color comes off. But before

jumping in the shower, dust off as much of the dry powder as possible.

You can try adding a little baking soda to your body wash for those

areas where the color doesn't come off as easily.

Our sponsor, Tum-E Yummies, will also be providing wet wipe

packets at their cleanup station after the race. Keep reading to
