Spokane, WA – The Color Run™, the single largest paint race event series in the world, will be making its debut in Spokane on August 4, 2013. Registration opens Friday, March 29.  

With no winners or official times, The Color Run celebrates healthiness, happiness, and individuality, bringing the community together to create a five-kilometer canvas of colorful fun in which thousands of participants are doused from head to toe in different colors at each kilometer. Participation in, and buzz for, The Color Run has exploded since its debut last year with more than 1 million "likes" on Facebook and over 4 million YouTube views.

The Color Run visited over 50 cities last year with over 600,000 participants, a feat following their first event in January of 2012. They plan to make 2013 a stellar year, launching over 100 events with an estimated 1 million participants.
