JOIN USRang Race 2015’, India’s first fun run with colours will be held on March 29 at Embassy Manyata Business Park.
Organised by The Slackline Company, a start-up that envisions creating niche outdoor sports based events; its founders feel ‘Rang Race’ is the perfect start to this
journey.
Aimed at creating an event that is fun, encouraging both the running and the non-running community to be a part of it, this 5 km run will have colour zones through which the participants will run. Volunteers from the Sparsha Trust, the charity partner, will throw organic colours on the participants.
The participants will begin the race in white and as they reach the finish line, it will be a colourful canvas on array.
The colours are being sourced from a women’s cooperative in Mangalore, called Vanastree.
Aalok Bharadwaj, a serial entrepreneur and co-founder of The Slackline Company says, “There aren’t too many running / outdoor events that cater to the amateur crowd. With this event, we are trying to create a platform where runners can bring along their non-running friends and family to enjoy the sport in a safe, fun filled atmosphere. By registering for the run, we not only promise you have a good time and be part of India’s first fun run with colour, we also make sure that we contribute to a cause that is very dear to us”.
The run will begin at 6.30 am. There will also be the ‘Gulaal Bazaar’ (stalls) that promises food, merchandise and fun activities. Registrations have begun.
More information on the run and registration details can be found on the website — www.rangrace.com.
