COLOR RUN FAQS

IS IT TIMED?

The MCTC PTA 3K Color Run/Walk is an untimed event. For anyone who wants a finish time, we suggest self-timing.

IS THE POWDER SAFE?

We will be using powder from Color Powder Supply Co., they strive to have the safest color powder available in the USA. Their formula uses simple and 100% natural ingredients including Corn Starch and Natural dyes. It is free of harsh chemicals, heavy metals, and all other toxic ingredients. Although its made of all edible ingredients, it is not intended for consumption. The color powders are biodegradable and environmentally friendly, allowing you to celebrate without leaving a negative impact on nature.

WHAT TO BRING?

Some Color Runners opt to wear glasses or goggles for their eyes and use a bandana or dust mask for their mouths.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I INGEST IT?

While the ingredients are natural and edible, the product is not intended for consumption. If you do ingest a small amount, do not be concerned, simply drink plenty of water.

WHAT HAPPENS IF IT GETS IN MY EYES?

If you get a small amount in your eyes, simply flush with water. Suggesting that participants wear sunglasses or providing them at your event is a a great way to keep eyes safe.

HOW TO AVOID INHALING?

The color powder is very fine and dust will be in the air when using large amounts at events. Inhaling a small amount of color powder dust will result in colorful boogers, but isnt harmful. Dust masks, bandanas, or gator masks can be used to help protect against dust inhalation. Those with respiratory issues should take precautions as they would around any other dust.

IS IT SAFE TO BRING CAMERA AND PHONES TO THE EVENT?

To be totally safe, we always recommend covering cameras/phones with a protective dust wrap. The MCTC PTA 3K is not liable for any damage that might be done to your phone or camera!

WILL THE COLOR RUIN MY CLOTHES OR RUNNING SHOES?

The color mostly washes out after the event. As with anything dirty, the sooner you wash it the better. Its best to wear items that you wouldnt mind getting colorful.

WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS?

A little rain wont stop the MCTC PTA 3K. It even makes the color brighter! If there are major weather warnings in your city during the weekend of the event, check the runsignup webpage, and stay tuned for emails with updates.
