Raider Color Run returns for 2018

By Justin Kline

  • Runners of all ages were able to hit the trail at PCHS.

  • Every year, the Raider Color Run starts with participants throwing fistfuls of colored powder high above their heads.

  • More than 60 runners signed up for the 2018 run.

  • Braxton Plunk and Parker Messick.

  • Several points on the trail featured color stations where runners would get sprayed with powder by PCHS students.

  • Some runners kept powder on hand to throw at their friends.

  • Almost every runner was caked with powder by the end of the event.

  • Though the run is untimed and hosted just for fun, some participants gave it their best shot.

  • Plant City High students had a blast spraying runners with powder.

  • When people at the color stations got bored between runners passing through, they'd turn the bottles on themselves for fun.

Just after the Nov. 3 sunrise colored the morning sky, more than 60 runners went to Plant City High School to color themselves.

The annual Raider Color Run, a 3.1-mile trek around the PCHS campus, was held that Saturday morning and invited people to run, walk or stroll through a course lined with color stations.
