From the Organizer
Bring the whole family out for the Mountaineer Color Run! Take on a 1-mile color run/walk around the track and soccer field while getting covered in bright, colorful powder along the way.
This is a non-timed event, so there are no race times or results. Just come out, enjoy the course, and make some memories together!
Not running? No problem! Join us for a free family fun night with a bounce house, face painting, games, dessert, and more. All activities are free! We ask that anyone who would like to participate in the Color Run itself please register for the event.
Come early or stay after and grab dinner! Concessions will be available all evening, with a Pulled Pork Meal for $7 or a Hot Dog Meal for $5.
