Running Colors is a 5K, fun run/walk that is focused less on speed and more on crazy color fun with friends and family. Color runners are all different ages, shapes, sizes, and speeds; so whether you are a casual morning walker or an all-star athlete, you'll have a great time.
Runners and walkers are encouraged to start out
wearing white and will end covered in vibrant hues! While you run or walk the
3.1 mile course, you'll get blasted with color as you go. Every kilometer (so
that’s 5 times!), runners will be blitzed with non-toxic, environmentally
friendly powdered color. At the finish of the event, there will be a color
throwing party followed by a public picnic. Concessions will be available, or
you can pack your own picnic.
The first 100 people to register will receive a Running Colors drawstring bag filled with swag, including additional color packets to celebrate with. Registration is $20, or $25 the day of the event, and free for children 10 and under who are accompanied by a paying adult. To register, visit www.ViewArts.org or call 315-369-6411.

Check-in
will begin at 9 am, with the 5K starting at 11 am. The
run/walk will begin and end at the Old Forge Lakefront. The Adirondack course is a
great combination of both scenic and flat.
If you think it sounds like
fun, but would prefer not to run or walk, then consider volunteering. View needs volunteer
color-bombers to toss colors at participants as they go, and there are several
other volunteer needs for this event. To volunteer, call View at (315)-369-6411
or email info@viewarts.org.
