I did the Color Run in Little Rock, AR a about three weeks ago. Lots of fun, but I would suggest wearing something over your mouth to keep from getting that gritty stuff in your teeth!0
-
I'm doing one in LA on.2/2. Can't wait!0
-
i did one this summer in VA. it is a LOT of fun (fyi they do not time the race so if you want to know you're time you'll have to do it yourself). keep your mouth shut as much as you can - i was spitting blue and pink through have the race. LOL! oh and it does get EVERYWHERE! it does seep through your clothes. it took a few days to get out of my hair too.0

Planning on it being my first 5k in Tulsa in April! Can't wait!0

Wahoooo Cbus, O-H!!! :drinker:
I'm going to make a team for the run in Vegas this spring, first time, super excited!!!!0 -
Ran it last year and I am signed up to run it again in February, have a great run!!!0
-
I live in Dayton, OH and I did the Color Me Rad Run in Cincy. It was a blast!!0
-
I did the Philly one this year and am planning on DC and Philly in 2013! I can't wait!!! Definitely agree with keeping your mouth shut! Serious dry mouth!!! LOL
Have fun!0 -
I missed out on the one here in DC in the fall, but definitely want to do it next year, looks like so much fun!0
-
I did cbus this past summer! It was fun, just be ready to be at a standstill at the color stations...they get backed up!0

I'm doing one in Seattle in May! So excited. I wanna run the whole thing. I'm doing a Jingle Bell Run 5k tomorrow where I'll walk and run. Practice for May's color run. Thanks for the tip about stuff getting in your mouth. I guess I'll be wearing a surgical-type mask maybe decorate it somehow. You know, something that goes ncely with the tutu I plan to wear over my running shorts.0

Sounds like fun!0

DId one last year....don't believe the 'it comes off easily" story about the color. It was hot & sweaty and I had green and purple spots on my torso after like 3 showers! I wouldn't do it again, but a lot of people loved it!
There does tend to be a slowdown/backup at the 'color stations' ...so if you're a competitive runner concerned about your run time, this might be annoying (I'm not..so it wasn't a big issue for me, but some friends were frustrated aboout that)0 -
I'd love to do a 5k by my next birthday and the 2013 Color Run is the weekend following. Hot damn!0
-
I did it with my girls at the beginning of the year. Really fun, but not sure I'd do it again(entry cost is expensive for what you get). My running shoes are colored to this day(I just retired them, though). And the color didn't totally come out of anything. Fun to do once, more fun to do with a group of people. Bring a camera, goggles or glasses, a handkerchief if you have breathing issues and have fun!
Pics of it are actually in my profile if interested.0 -
I just signed up for the DC run two minutes ago!!! So excited bc it sold out quick last year.0
-
Twice - both in Wisconsin this past summer. Loads of fun.0
-
Haven't signed up yet (putting together a team with a couple of friends so we're on the lookout for at least one more person before we register), but I'm planning on doing the Orange County one next May. Excited as it seems like lots of fun and it will be my first 5k.0

I did The Color Run in San Diego last October and something called the Color Mob on December 8. The Color Run was more organized and Both were fun. They're not timed and both started in waves. Like a Mud Run your clothes may never be the same after....looking forward to the Orange County Color Run in May!0

I-O!!!!! (Couldnt pass it up!!)
And for the people with the color complaints....we all jumped in the hotel pool after....most of it was gone by the end of our swim....we were all hoping for a big colorful swimming pool. We got nothing *sadface*. DEFINITELY wear old shoes (or ones you dont care about getting colored). I wore a black sports bra that didn't have any damage....same with my green shorts. If you can do it with a group I Highly reccommend it.....People who are serious runners and want a serious run should probably look elsewhere...as stated before it's got huge backups at color stations AND it's not timed...but its AWESOME for everyone else...even if you're not a runner....a LOT of people walk it! But yeah....Blondes i think have more trouble getting it out of their hair, but i really had no issue getting it out of anything.0 -
I have a whole group of friends going! Gonna be so fun!
Seattle, May 2013!!!0 -
Can anyone tell me what the registration fee is? I'm planning to go to the Seattle run.0
-
So jealous!! I want to run in one someday!0
-
I might do the Color Run in Orange Co this May. I wanted to do it in San Diego last year, but it didn't happen. Although my friend wants me to do another 5k the same day as the Color Run. So I might do it in Iowa in July. If i'm back home at that time. Was planning vacation there around then.0

I plan on doing my first color run in chicago in May!! They even had a groupon for it!!0
-
I have really been wanting to do a color run myself Have fun!0
-
I'm doing my first Color Run in KC on June 1. I can't wait!!0
