Anyone hear about this Graffiti Me 5km in Ottawa?

Postby Ironboy » Mon Jul 30, 2012 11:18 am

http://www.graffitime.com

There's no info on the website about who the organizers are, except that they're from Logan Utah. The domain is registered by DomainProxy, which can be used to protect registrants from bad/annoying people out there, or protect bad/annoying registrants from people.

Although it looks fun, I'm not sure how to feel about the apparent lack of transparency (which in all fairness could be an oversight).

Thoughts?

Knock off of the colour run series?
When your legs get tired, run with your heart.

Overcome the notion that you must be regular. It robs you of your chance to be extraordinary.

Looks like, but even that one is hard to figure out who they are, what they stand for and why they are doing it.

We could volunteer to man a colour station and then throw only orange!

I think they're just doing it for fun. ;)

I have no idea what this thing is, but the website is good stuff. When your FAQ section includes

Q: What if I see a double rainbow?
A: Whoa, double rainbow!

you're doing a good job.
