Overview

Now in its second year, this evening race is sponsored by the First Pentecostal Church in Durham.  The run will be on trails at the C.M. Herndon Park in Durham located at 511 Scott King Road.  In addition to the 5K, a one-mile Color Run is also planned.

The 5K and mile both begin at 6 pm.

Like the Color Runs in the past, this event will feature volunteers throwing colored corn starch on the participants along the course.  For the best effect, it is recommended participants wear white t-shirts.

The mile will not be officially timed, but all participants will be able to see their finishing times on a digital clock at the finish line.

Participants in the 5K have the option of signing up as being timed or not timed.  Those who elected to be included in the official results will also be eligible for overall and age group awards.  Those who elect not to be in the official results are usually those who are just participating to support the cause for which the event is being held and do not care about having their results published or being eligible for awards.  But like in the mile, all participants will be able to see their finish times on the clock at the finish line.

The entry fees for the 5K, regardless if one selects to be timed or not, are $30, if registered by September 5, $35 from September 6 to September 23, and $40 on race day.  For the mile, the fees are $10 less.

T-shirts are guaranteed to all registered by September 17.  After that date, it will be "as available."

In the 5K, awards will be presented to the top three males overall, to the top three females overall, and to the top finishers in each of the following age groups (both sexes): 12 and under, 13-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69 and 70-over.
