Every kilometer has a different color, and as you run in that kilometer people spritz you with color powder, so by the end you look like a rainbow! Or a Jackson Pollock painting. It's supposed to be fun and laid-back--they don't record times, and the website says that you can do cartwheels the whole way if you want.
It seemed like very best 5k I could possibly do for my first. So I asked some friends here in the Cities and six of us are now on a team together: Rainbow Chard and the Transplants. Yes, that is our team name.
Now I just have to get in shape to run a 5k... Expect some updates on my progress!

That sounds like a BLAST! I'm going to have to look that one up. Do you have a program you're following to train for the 5k?
I know there's one in DC! I'm doing the Couch to 5k. By which I mean I started it today. But I've had success with it in the past! Do you recommend something else?
That's the program I am used, and I loved it! And now I'm crazy and signing up for the Marine Corps Marathon. So be careful, it's addictive ;-)
Good luck!
Wow, good for you!
