Team Melissa & Marty 5K Color Run
The Team Melissa & Marty 5K is an untimed, non-competitive event taking place in Jacksonville, North Carolina. This run is organized to raise awareness for domestic violence and sexual assault while promoting unity and hope within the community. The event focuses on health and joy rather than speed, allowing participants to move through the course in their own way.
The event features a single distance:
- 5 km (3.1 miles)
Participants begin the race wearing white clothing. Along the course, they pass through specific color stations where volunteers distribute colored powder made from safe, food-grade materials. By the end of the route, participants are covered in various bright colors. The activity is open to various forms of movement, including walking, skipping, running, or dancing.
The course is located at 133 Batting Cage Lane. This community gathering aims to provide support for survivors and bring people together for a common cause. Registration is required to participate in this colorful outdoor activity, which emphasizes collective impact and survivor support. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
