Hey Everybody,
Just wanted to see if anybody around MFP is doing the Color Run Coming up in late March.
It's a 5k coming to Nashville on 3/29 I believe.
Also, anyone know what they use to put the color in color run.
I assume its dyed flour or something like that.

I don't know why (and please don't take offense), but color runs seem to be very feminine to me. Probably because my 21 yo daughter loves them.
I've never done one, but I'm guessing they use a water-based, paint powder. It is common for kindergarden classes because it is easy to turn to paint (add water), is non-toxic and washes out (for the most part). They'll probably have some way to get you wet (or rely on sweat) to activate the paint.
Kudos on setting up a running challenge to keep yourself motivated. Enjoy!0 -

Anyways thanks info Allan!0 -
Again my apologies if I offended. I saw this article by Ben Greenfield and thought I'd post the link:

Turns out the paint is mixed with corn starch. Enjoy!0
