Back by popular demand! Union Academy High School Student Council and the Varsity Cross Country team are partnering up with the UA Foundation to put on UA’s first ever Cardinal Color Run. Our color run is a 5-kilometer race where participants are covered in colored powder while running, walking, or jogging. The powder is non-toxic, gluten-free, and safe for people and pets of all ages and it washes away easily. Participants wear white at the starting line and finish the race plastered in color. Fifty percent of the proceeds and all donations will be donated to Victory Junction.
THINGS TO KNOW:
- Two age groups: 13+ and 12 & under
- Race registration deadline is 4/8/26 to lock in price and guarantee a t-shirt
- Registration after the 4/8/26 deadline will result in price increase of $5 and no guarantee of t-shirt
- REGISTRATION ENDS ON 4/18/26
- Race-day registration will open back up at 6:00 am until 8:00 am on 5/2/26
- Race-day check-in for all runners begins at 7:00 am on 5/2/26
