IMHO, these things are getting ridiculous - Color Run, Foam run, even the Warrior Runs. What ever happened to a pure 5K or 10K for the pleasure of simply running and racing???

Apparently no one bothered to look up how far 5,000 kilometers is. They have
3.2 miles listed on their page. Tells you all you need to know.....

Oh come on now you elitists! I think events like this make things fun for people who wouldn't otherwise be interested in running and maybe it gets them off the couch and on track to a healthier lifestyle. Don't be hatin'! lol!
