Participants will run a route that starts at the Rec Park, travels through Manchester, and loops back to the Rec Park. Along the course there will be a water station in addition to people throwing the color (pigment powder) at them and directing them. At the start and end of the course (the home base), there will be a registration table, swag table, and food and drink tables for participants. This event will be organized and run by BBA’s Yellow Tulip Club and community volunteers. Every runner will receive a custom white event t-shirt that will end up being a rainbow of colors by the end of the race in addition to a custom race medal upon finishing!
