From the Organizer
Get ready to run, walk, laugh, and get covered in color at the WeCare Recovery Home Color Run 5K, part of the 2026 Frankfort Hot Dog Festival!
This untimed 5K fun run/walk is designed for participants of all ages and fitness levels. Whether you're chasing a personal goal, walking with friends, or making memories with your family, this event is all about having fun while supporting an important cause.
Along the course, participants will pass through multiple color stations where volunteers will shower runners and walkers with vibrant, non-toxic, food-grade colored powder, creating an unforgettable finish you'll be talking about long after race day.
Proceeds from the Color Run benefit WeCare Recovery Home, a nonprofit organization providing hope, healing, and long-term recovery for women overcoming addiction. Every registration helps support life-changing recovery services right here in our community.
Event Highlights
Wear a white shirt if you want the full color experience, and don't forget your camera. By the time you cross the finish line, you'll be wearing your accomplishment in every color of the rainbow.
Come run for fun. Run for hope. Run for recovery.
We can't wait to see you at the starting line!
