Did it. Loved It. Going to do it again.
It is perfect for someones first 5k cause it is not really focused on time. It is not even timed officially.0 -
Yes, I ran it last year wearing a white wedding dress!
It was an AMAZING event and I would totally recommend it.
It is a great first 5k event. There is no timing.
You're only focus should be completing the event and having fun.

The second 5k I ever did was the Color Run in Philadelphia July 2012. It was so hot and humid it was more of a Color Stroll for most people involved - but it was the most fun I've had doing "exercise" in forever. Since it wasn't a time event, we just enjoyed the sheer craziness of the event and everyone there. Even got all the color to stay put on my official T-shirt with a vinegar trick we looked up online.
Note for future reference: Do not attempt to breathe going through the color zones... :bigsmile:0 -

I think it depends on why you want to do it. If it's for fun, absolutely do it. If you want to race it, no, don't do it. We missed the Color Run last year as it was the same week we were on vacation, but did the Glow Run in July (9pm race with glow sticks/costumes/etc) and while fun, it was no fun trying to actually run it...no waves starting according to pace, it was a free for all and took us 45 mins to get across the start line and people were walking 6 across blocking the entire path, dogs, strollers, etc. I'm all for walkers, but AFTER the runners. Had I gone just for fun, it would have been ok, but I was wanting to actually run/race! We've avoided all the gimicky runs since, since we like to race!;)0
