About the Sun Fun Color Run
The course runs through Carrie Blake Park and out along the Olympic Discovery Trail, depending on which distance you choose. Along the way, volunteers post up at color stations and throw powdered dye on anyone who passes, so by the finish line most people look like they walked through a paint store explosion. The shorter loop stays in the park; the longer one is an out-and-back on the trail.
This is part of Sequim's Sunshine Festival, so the start area has a bit of a street-fair feel to it. Wear something you do not mind ruining, and bring a towel for the ride home. The color powder mostly washes out, but washing your run clothes separately is a good idea.

The Sun Fun Color Run has been held every year since at least 2020. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
