Subaru Color 5K Run/walk

Description

In its fifth year, this annual run-walk fundraiser has a goal to raise $50,000 for Special Olympics Indiana—which is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2019. Organized and hosted by Subaru of Indiana Automotive, participants are showered with colored powder, made of food-grade corn starch, at stations along the route. The event offers the choice between a 5K terrain course through a wooded area or a one-mile asphalt course. For competitive 5K runners, awards will be presented to the top overall male and female finisher, as well as the top male and female finisher in seven different age categories. Registration includes a T-shirt, bandanna, drawstring bag and bib with chip timer. For those who register by the online deadline of June 12, the cost is $35 for adults and $30 for kids 10 and younger. On race day, the cost is $40 for adults and $35 for kids. In addition to registering, participants can use the website to recruit family and friends to join their team or make a contribution. Awards are given for the largest team and top individual fundraiser. Last year’s event attracted over 550 participants and raised over $45,000 for Special Olympics Indiana.
