Well on Saturday I was invited to Candy Jam 2013.

About the Candy Jam
Candy Jam is a 5km fun run full of colour! There is no prerequisite for fitness level or skill set. Run, crawl, walk or cartwheel your way to the finish line – the choice is yours.
The idea behind Candy Jam is that each participant starts in white clothing. at every kilometer mark you are dazzled with a new colour. The colour is dyed corn flour and you will slowly find yourself turning from a bland white to a colourful live and animated piece of candy!
We are all about fun and keeping friends and family active. With no pressure on competing and the event being open to all age groups, there really is no reason not to be involved.
We have partnered with Camp Quality and you can be assured that you are all assisting with raising funds for this worthwhile charity. On top of our contribution, participants are encouraged at sign in to click the link through to Camp Quality where they have the facility to raise funds yourself by getting people to sponsor YOU to run! They have great prizes for those who raise the most money so be sure to get on board!

Here are some photos which were taken on my iphone (in lifeproof case) and my sony action cam (in Gladwrap).

Very colorful at the end. Is there a place to hose off at the end or do you have to go home with all that stuff on you?

There is actually an air blower that will blow off most colour, but at the end of the day you need a few days of good washing to remove it from the skin lol apparently some people were not happy about this, me I just laughed about it. It was for a good cause.

You mean some people didn't know about how long the color would last.
Well if for charity its worth it.
Also very nice photos.
They said it would wash right out lol but it's not quite that instant.
