Runner Or Not, You Won’t Want To Miss This Colorful Event

The "Happiest 5k on the Planet" will be held November 1 at Broadway at the Beach. The Color Run™ is a unique paint race that celebrates healthiness, happiness and individuality. Runners and spectators are armed with 100% colored cornstarch that's enthusiastically showered upon runners at several points during the event. Most participants start out dressed in white and hope to finish the 5k with all the colors of the rainbow decorating their bodies.

Unlike other 5ks, no one keeps time during The Color Run, so if you're looking for a place to reach your personal best, you'll have to bring your own stopwatch.

Registered participants receive a custom "The Color Run" race shirt and over-the-shoulder bag, tattoo, bag of color, race bib, Color Runner finisher sweat band, and sponsor goodies.

Since 2011, The Color Run has been circling the globe, bringing colorful fun and fitness to cityscapes. In 2013, there were 170 events in 30-plus countries.

But there's only one Color Run in Myrtle Beach, and it's this Saturday at 8:00 a.m. at Broadway at the Beach. Come join the fun!
