Phoenix was the first stop for this new "fun run". The Color Fun Fest 5K is super family-oriented. It's a great one for runner families to get everyone involved. I even saw tons of strollers out there! Kids 12 and under get in FREE!
The proceeds go to two LOCAL kids charities. So it's all for a great cause. You get filthy but it's worth it. Don't go planning to PR. This is a FUN RUN. Wear old clothes and bring an extra pair to change into afterwards.
Parking is $10 but again, it's all for a good cause. The course is a loop out and back around the outskirts of the large pavillion parking lot. This was the first stop on the tour.
