DC Multisport to host Annual Color Fun Run in conjunction with Solar Eclipse Festivities

Ferdinand is set to burst into a riot of colors for the annual Color Fun Run on Saturday, April 6, 2024. This lively event promises a morning of family-friendly fun and fitness. The Color Fun Run, organized by DC Multisport, is a family-friendly event that combines the thrill of a traditional run with the excitement of being showered in an array of lively colors along the route. Participants will walk/run through the beautiful 18th Street Park. The event is for fun with no place prizes but for each lap completed participants earn a ticket to enter in to win a completion prize. (up to three laps can be completed)

Date: Saturday, April 6, 2024

Time: 10am (EST)

Location: Tri-County YMCA

Route: Loops around 18th Street Park

Participants are encouraged to wear white attire, as throughout the run, vibrant color stations strategically placed along the route will shower them with safe and eco-friendly colored powders. This creates a visually stunning and exhilarating atmosphere, transforming the participants into living canvases of color. If registered prior to March 22, registration include a white, “Run for the Sun” eclipse themed shirt.

The Color Fun Run is not just about the run itself; it's a celebration of community, friendship, and giving back. Beyond the main event, Girls on the Run of southwest Indiana use the event as the “Practice 5K event” and all proceeds from the event are given back to The Dove House, a women’s recovery home, located in Jasper.

Registration is now open, and early sign-ups are encouraged to guarantee a T-shirt. Day of registrations will be available beginning at 9:15am.
