You Pay Your Money and You Take Your Chances

November 16, 2013 By: John Blue Category: General Running News

What if you showed up for a color run and the color run wasn’t there?

A white shirted army descended on the Sacramento Raceway for a chance to be showered in colored corn starch Saturday. But the hundreds who turned out for an event promoted as “The Color Fight” discovered only an empty track and their prepaid tickets worthless.

According to an article in the Sacramento Bee, the event’s Race Director, Chris Martin of San Jose, failed to secure the facility for the event.

Accidents happen–even in well established events–but this is a fine example of why you should stick to races with local roots and a solid history.
