MSA Color Me 5K Run and Walk

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS!

• Pick up your tee shirt and number on Wednesday, May 27, from 4:00 – 5:30 pm in the MSA Auditorium. Please enter through the doors on Dundonald Street.
    
• Route Marshals: Marshals will be stationed along the route to guide you.
   
• Water Station: There will be a water station on Pitts Bay Road, courtesy of Luso.
   
• Powder Stations: We will have six powder stations—one at the start, one at each mile, one on Woodlands Road,
  and one at the finish line. There will be options if you wish not to get powdered.

• Footwear: Wear shoes you don't mind getting colorful. After the event, shake out your shoes and either hand wash or machine wash them, or just keep wearing them until the color fades.
   
• Eye Protection: To prevent powder from getting into your eyes, we suggest wearing sunglasses. They also protect against the sun.
   
• Mouth and Nose Protection: Consider wearing a bandana to keep powder out of your mouth and nose. The powder is made from cornstarch and baking soda, but it’s not tasty. You can also use the bandana as a headband to protect your scalp.
   
• Dress Up: Feel free to express yourself with tutus, fuzzy boas, and crazy hair! Stand out and have fun with your outfit.
   
• Safety First: Stay on the sidewalk at all times where possible. This is not a race or competition, so be careful.
    
• Raffle Prizes: Raffle tickets will be available for purchase during the evening, giving you a chance to win great prizes! 
   
• Post-Run Activities: After the run/walk, stay to enjoy food from various vendors, drinks from the alumni association bar, and music from our DJ.

Have Fun: The most important thing to wear is a smile! Enjoy yourself and get colorful!
