Courtney 's thoughts:

If you are looking for fun for the whole family this is your race! Before the race and after there is live music and a color "party". There are lots of places to take photos.

Every 1/2 mile color stations blast you with an array of rainbow spectacular colorful fun. Bubble color, liquid color, powder color... Oh my!

This was our 4 year old's first race and he loved it! Midway through the race there was a glow in the dark tunnel. Smiling from ear to ear we had a fabulous time.

Complaints? Yeah a few. The race did not start on time. It was about 10 minutes late and for an evening start that's a bit challenging for families with young children.

The terrain was uneven and the course was not clearly marked. Our lil tike fell and scraped his knee. And the course was about 2.9 instead of 3.1 miles.

Unlike the Color Run the race only gave us one color packet to share between 3 people. None of the glow necklaces we were given worked. Thankfully, before the race they threw some to the runners before the race started. The glow sticks were useful on a course with very little light.

Overall it was super fun though! For the price of the LivingSocial/Groupon we would do this race again.
