Crusaders United Color Run - event description
The Tyburn Academy Crusaders present the 2nd Annual Crusaders United Color Run on May 23, 2026, at Everest Park in Auburn, New York. The event raises funds for Tyburn Academy and the United Way of Cayuga County; half of proceeds support the school and half support United Way programs focused on Financial Stability and Community Resilience.
There are three participation options: a traditional 5K color run or walk on a course with color stations, a virtual 5K option with mailed color packets, and a smaller kids fun run for children 8 years and younger on a shorter course through Everest Park. The traditional event is generally untimed though one timer will record finish times and first, second, and third place awards will be given for the traditional course. Awards also include the kids fun run top three, a largest group award for traditional or virtual entries, and a farthest virtual participant prize.
Participant items vary by option. Traditional 5K entrants receive a single color packet, an event t-shirt (guaranteed if registered by May 3), a race bib, and one raffle ticket. Virtual 5K entrants receive two color packets, an event t-shirt (same t-shirt guarantee), and a race bib; virtual packets are mailed the week before the event and packet mailing after April 25 may not arrive by race day. Kids receive a color pack, event t-shirt, and race bib. Registration fees listed by the organizer are $35 for an individual 5K, $30 per person in teams of three or more, and $20 for the kids fun run, plus fees.
