Color Me Rad

Run a 5km Race while Being Pelted with Paint Bombs!

Location
Meribel-Mottaret
Imprint
Updated

Color Me Rad comes to Meribel! Start off in a pristine white t-shirt and cross the finish line splattered in all the colours of the rainbow!

A fun run rather than a serious race, Color Me Rad is an idea that started off in the States and has since gone global. Racers must run the gauntlet of powdered paint bombs being thrown at them by spectators.

The race starts at 3pm in Mottaret and finishes at 5pm in La Chaudanne where there'll be a music festival waiting to help you celebrate your new look.

In case you're worried, the paint is all made of non-toxic cornstarch and will wash out of hair and skin quite easily.

You can find all information on how to register on the Color Me Rad website (in French).
