About the Color Out Cancer

This is a color run, so expect to finish the course considerably less clean than you started. A powder war waits at the end, which tends to be the moment most people are photographing. The race benefits a local cancer support ministry that works with families in the area, so the crowd reflects that, all ages, all paces.

Health and wellness vendors and food trucks are set up around the event area, and there are inflatable games for when you are done running. Chip timing is used, so results are posted the same day.

Common Questions About the Color Out Cancer

Will I finish last at the Color Out Cancer?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 48:59, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:17:54, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Color Out Cancer a good first 5K?

A field of 399 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Color Out Cancer?

The 5K winner ran 20:03 while the median finisher took 48:59. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
