Super Fun Color Run!

What to wear?

• Sunglasses or eye wear to shield eyes from debris at color stops.
• Clothes/shoes that you don’t mind getting dirty. White attire is suggested so you can decorate your clothes at the color stops. Color should wash out but it will be messy.
• Comfortable running shoes that can get dirty.
