Color In Motion 5K

Throwing dyed cornstarch at people who are trying to breathe is not just moronic, it’s UNHEALTHY. Cornstarch is used by this for-​profit company as a vehicle for dyes that are thrown at participants. The idea is a good one, but the method is not healthy, particularly for children and people with asthma. A closer look at this company’s reveals there is some hazard to being pelted with a fine solid dust while you try to breathe. Take a hint from the band GWAR, who have been showering the public with safe dyes for years: add some water to avoid airborne particulate matter from entering folks’ respiratory systems!

Who doesn’t enjoy looking like a rainbow vomited all over you after running 3.2 miles of awesomeness?
This was probably one of the most fun 5k runs I have participated in thus far. In fact I’m pretty sure its fun for not only the run participants but also those that volunteer to make sure your covered in color by the time you cross the finish line. It’s a great event for all ages and for every level of runner/​walker. As you trek along adding those miles on to your sneakers you reach «color» check points where volunteers are armed with bottles of colored powder awaiting the human canvases that are about to pass through.
