The Color Run
The Color Run is an irreverent, carnival-like, running event in Port Elizabeth
Run over a 5 km course, it claims to be the world’s largest untimed running series. It was founded in 2011, with the mission of bringing people together to make the world a happier, healthier place. Color Runners are encouraged to roll, hop, skip and run through the streets of the city.
Participants begin the event in their white The Color Run T-shirts and complete it coloured from head-to-toe. The 2018 version for example included stilt walkers, balloon shapers, music, good-natured clowning around, and plenty of colour.
