About this race
Race Overview
Foam Glow 5K™ is a fun filled experience exposing runners to Glowing Foam and a ton of Blacklight’s all over the course. Glowing runners come from all different ages, shapes, sizes, and speeds. Whether you are a long term runner or a walk around the park stroller, the 3 miles of the Foam Glow 5K™ course will have you shining bright and waiting for the next run.
Course Rules
- White Shirt: Any white T-shirt will work: the more white you wear, the better.
- Foam Glow Zones: Runners sprint through Foam Glow™ Zones to the finish line!
Runner/walkers begin the 5k at the start line like a brand new canvas. By the end, they look like they fell into a tye-dye machine and are covered with different colored foam that glows under black lights.
What is the Foam Glow™?
Along the running path you will find Foam Glow™ Zones, which are associated with a designated color: orange, pink, or blue. As the runners/walkers reach the Foam Glow™ Zones, they will run through different color foam that glows in the dark under our high intensity black lights. All products are 100% natural and non-toxic. At the end of the race, there will be a Foam Glow 5K™ after party filled with music pumping from the stage, Foam Glow™ and tons of black lights!
