Colors of Cancer Memorial 5K Color Run/Walk and Kids Rainbow Dash
This memorial charity event takes place on August 8, 2026 in Toronto, Ohio, with the course starting at Tri B’s Coffee Shop, 241 North 4th Street. The route follows a flat, scenic stretch along the Ohio River.
Event options include:
- 5K Timed Run
- 5K Timed Walk
- Leisure 5K (non-timed, no awards)
- Kids Rainbow Dash 1K for ages 12 and under
- Virtual 5K Run/Walk
Proceeds benefit local families through The Sunshine Charity, providing assistance for needs such as co-pays, groceries, gas, travel, lodging, and related expenses. Funds raised are scheduled for distribution to families following race day.
The Leisure 5K option allows participants to walk, jog, or complete any portion of the course without timing; leisure participants still receive an event T shirt and may join post-event festivities but are not eligible for timed awards. The Kids Rainbow Dash is an approximately 1K out-and-back course designed for children twelve and under; adults should not register for the kids event. A virtual option lets participants complete the distance remotely and share photos and dedications from elsewhere. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
