Put down the turkey sandwich and head to Bordwell Park for the first annual Raincross Color Run. The run, part of the Local Vibes Event Series, is a city-sponsored, family-friendly, community event aimed at getting people out of the house and engaged in their neighborhood.

Color Run participants will run four-kilometer laps around Bordwell Park, passing through "Color Stations," where they will be blasted with pigment. What starts as a white T-shirt becomes a technicolor proof of participation. Racers are encouraged to finish as much of the race as they would like and at the pace with which they are most comfortable.

When the race is over, participants and observers can hang around the park for holiday-themed activities and food and craft vendors. The Raincross Color Run is a great way to get out of the house, get a little exercise, and meet fellow Riversiders.

The race takes place from 9-11 AM at Bordwell Park on 14th Street. More information on the event can be found on the City's website, and online registration can be found at RunSignup.
