About the Unicorns & Rainbows 5k
This is a color-themed race in Seattle that leans into the playful side of running. The course draws runners, walkers, and anyone in between, and the organizers encourage bright, festive clothing. Photo opportunities are set up along the way, and free race photos are part of the deal.
The finish line has food and drink waiting, and the atmosphere there tends to match the spirit of the event: unhurried and good-natured. Packet pickup and logistics details are best confirmed through the race organizers ahead of time.
