A color run is a fun, non-competitive event where participants run or walk a designated distance while being doused in colorful powders. These powders, often made from cornstarch and food coloring, are thrown at runners at various checkpoints along the route. The goal is to enjoy the experience rather than focus on speed, making it accessible for people of all ages and fitness levels. Typically, color runs are organized as community events, often supporting local charities or causes. Participants usually wear white clothing, which becomes vibrant and colorful by the end of the race. Many color runs also feature music, entertainment, and post-race celebrations, enhancing the festive atmosphere.
