I came across this today and it just seems like the coolest idea, so I am signing my family up for it.

    That does look fun. Is there a charity involved? I couldn't fins any mention on the website.

    I just heard about this 5K this past weekend! Looks like a ton of fun! My husband and I are definitely signing up!

    As far as the charity goes - I'm pretty sure this supports the local YMCA. I think I read that somewhere on the website...

    They basically choose a charity in the area. I don't think it's ever the same one.

    Today's Hartford Groupon has discounted registration for this too, FYI.

    I am planning on doing this too with my daughter and some friends. I started a jogging program since I have never jogged (any distance) before and I am not signing up until I am closer to the time. My group I believe is starting at 915 though. I will have to double check this.

    We changed our time to be able to go with some friends that are also going. We are now in the 9:10 :)

    It was so fun!! :-) And it made for a very colorful shower afterwards - the blue just wouldn't come off ;-)
