2026 Johnson Elementary PTO Color Run

All parents, students, and community members are invited to participate in the 6th annual Johnson Elementary School "Race to the Finish" Color Run on March 14th at ROSSFORD PARK! The event will support Johnson Elementary School and provide a day of healthy, colorful fun for the entire community! 🏃🏾🏃🏾🏃🏾

 

The race distance is approx. 1 mile—perfect for everyone from youngest siblings to grandparents. There will be 3 start times to choose from:

• 1:00 p.m
• 1:20 p.m.
• 1:40 p.m.

 

Registration is $20 for individuals or $70 for families of 4 or more who reside in the same household. To take advantage of this deal for your immediate family, simply add each person that you're registering and then select Family Rate from the Multi-Person Pricing drop down menu. (Make sure to do so before signing the waiver!)

 

Register by February 20th and receive an official Color Run T-shirt AND a slice of pizza. Our race t-shirts, featuring this year's logo, come in white—a perfect blank canvas for the sea of colors you're about to run through! In honor of PI Day, we will also include a pizza ticket for our early bird registrants. Signing up after February 20th? No problem! Registrations are still welcome beyond February 20th and even on race day. Just know that a T-shirt and pizza are not included with your registration fee. 

 

After completing the race, all participants are invited to stay for food, fun, and entertainment! At the finish line, head over to the warming zone to grab a slice of pizza PI (for registrants before Feb. 20) and purchase a hot chocolate to warm up! Don't forget dessert—grab a waffle from Johnson-family-favorite Marty's Waffles!

 

Other than a white shirt to show off your colors, consider dressing along with this year's theme: St. Patrick's Day! Dust off those green tutus, emerald glasses, and chartreuse socks. ☘️🌈
