FYI, The Color Run is returning to the Fairgrounds on July 14, and registration is already open. Last year the first start time filled up quickly, and they added a couple more that I think also filled up (with - I think - 17,000 participants?!?!). There are three times this year: 8:30, 9:15 and 9:30, less spread out than last year when they were an hour apart.

There's a coupon code that expires at midnight on January 5 that saves $5 off registration: TCRVIP13

    Thank you! I didn't realize sign-ups started so early! I'm going to have to make sure I budget because I missed out on this one last year and was completely bummed about it!

    Thanks for posting.

    Never done anything like this but it looks like it will be loads of fun. I am signing up today. My eight-year old son declared last night that he is going to run, too. This would be his first 5K. Mine, too. And its non-competitive, probably a good idea for his first (and mine, too... hah).

    I want to get together a few more people and form a team. Why not? Let's do this!

    WOW! Thanks, I didnt know either that it started so early. This was a fun one i wanted to try this year. Its a couple weeks after a planned 1/2 and a few weeks before Ragnar but I figure if its more of a fun run - it can't hurt. :) I loved seeing all the Colored people out and about the city after the race last year! Thanks for the info!
