Frequently Asked Questions
Will the color ruin my clothes or shoes?
The color will mostly wash out of your items after the event. However, we do recommend wearing things you wouldn’t mind getting a little dirty!
Is the color powder safe?
Yes of course! Your safety is our top priority. The color powder is essentially died corn starch and is completely non-toxic.
What if the color gets in my eyes?
As previously stated, the powder is completely non-toxic. Additionally, our color throwers will be instructed to aim below the face to reduce the chance of it getting in your eyes. Some runners elect to wear sunglasses during the race to prevent color getting in their eyes, but this is completely up to you!
What all comes with my registration?
Registration comes with a t-shirt, individual color packet to throw at the beginning of the race, an optional race-day bib, and other little gifts from us to you!
Is the Kolor me Katie 5k timed?
No! The focus of the run is to get out there and have a great time with your friends and family. Feel free to run as quickly, or walk as slowly, as you’d like!
Is it okay if my younger kids run the 5k?
This is up to you! We have both a Kiddie Kolor Run and a 1-Mile Fun Run with suggested ages, but if you feel comfortable with your child completing the entire 5k, he or she is welcome to!
Will this be the coolest event I’ve ever been to?
Of course! Not only will you be blasted with color while running with your friends and family, but you will also have the opportunity to hang around and enjoy live music and great food! Keep in mind that all of this fun is in support of a great cause. This is an event that cannot be missed!
