The event dubbed the “happiest 5K on the planet” is taking place in Windsor this weekend.

The Color Run 5k is scheduled for Saturday at the Riverfront Festival Plaza. Registration is sold out, with 11,000 expected to participate.

The unique paint race celebrates healthiness, happiness, individuality and giving back to the community.

There are only two rules – wear white and finish plastered in colour. Runners will be doused from head-to-toe in different colours at each kilometre.
