Join us for a vibrant 5k race and 1-mile fun run in celebration of Holi and Songkran! Holi—the Hindu “Festival of Colors” and “Festival of Spring”—marks the end of winter and honors the triumph of good over evil as people throw colored powder at one another. During Songkran or Thai New Year, people pour water on each other to symbolize washing away the past year’s bad luck and welcoming happiness, renewal, and prosperity. Inspired by these traditions, we are excited to bring the community together for a morning of movement, laughter, and cultural celebration.
Participants will race through a closed course inside Brookdale Park, getting splattered with colorful powder along the way. Strollers are welcome (though we ask that they start in the back of the pack), but unfortunately, dogs are not permitted.
8:30 am – 5k starts
10:00 am – Fun run starts
Registration is open to all, but space is limited. Sign up now to secure your spot! Early-bird pricing is available until March 30.
VOLUNTEER WITH US
More than 100 volunteers are needed to check-in participants, guide runners around the course, and make sure everyone gets adequately splashed with color! Pitch in for a couple hours the day of the race or help organize stations and fill color bottles a few weeks in advance—we can’t do this without you!
