The Color Run is the world’s first colour 5k event and was founded in March 2011 to promote healthiness and happiness by bringing the community together to participate in the Happiest 5k On The Planet. It is now the single largest event series in the world, now hosting events in over 200 cities and 40 countries. Thousands of Color Runners start the day in a special edition white t-shirt, getting covered from head to toe in a rainbow of colours at 4 Color Zones and a brand new FOAM ZONE around the course. You can choose to run, walk, skip or dance your way around the course. It’s all about the fun and what gives you the biggest smiles! The fun continues at the epic Finish Festival which will include an awesome mix of DJs, amazing music and the truly famous ‘Color Throws’ as well as ‘Color Crazy’ giveaways! If you are looking for happy memories, big smiles and the most colourful day ever this is the event for you! The Color Run will take place on Sunday 22nd September at the Dunakeszi Airport. Make sure to register your interest for the happiest 5k on the planet! Tickets are now on sale, please register HERE! Until the 7th September 6990 HUF, after 7990 HUF until the 14th September. The starterpack includes: a RUNICORN medal, the official TCR t-shirt, a headband, a temporary tattoo, a Runicorn pin, a packet of colour powder and of course the bib number. Healthiness While the 5k event is all about having fun, the organisers also focus on promoting a healthy lifestyle. More than half of the participants are first-time 5k runners and the event is making headway on the national focus of improving health and wellness, hoping that The Color Run 5k event will be able to act as a catalyst for the participants to live an active, healthy lifestyle. Happiness It is an event for all fitness levels, ages and backgrounds. The tagline, The Happiest 5k on the planet, was created after seeing the expressions of pure joy from participants. Individuality Color Runners vary in demographics and reasons for running. With no winners or official times, The Color Run caters to everyone. Some Color Runners participate as a celebration and capstone of their healthy living accomplishments, while others participate for reasons unique to them. So, what are you running for? Photo: Pixabay
