RULES TO DYE BY:

FIRST RULE: Don’t worry – be Happy! Run or Dye is for everyone. No need to worry about if you are too fast, too slow, too old, too young, or too sexy! Just come experience the magic of the most colorful 5K this world has to offer!

SECOND RULE: You are your own canvas – Wearing all white may show off the color-or get costume-CRAZY wearing that old wedding dress, 80’s leg warmers, or those snakeskin pajamas. See you at the starting line!

LAST RULE: Get ready to DYE and go to heaven! The Dye Zone is where the magic happens! Our Color Crew is specially trained to administer Random Acts of Color with total efficiency. (HINT: We also love subliminal messages, such as: begging and pleading, striking that pose that makes us all uncomfortable, or dancing like a maniac. These are all code for “HIT ME WITH COLOR!”)
