ColorManila, the country’s most aggressive ‘concept fun-run’ organizer, gears up for its biggest and most colorful event to date – the ColorManila Run Year 6, also known as CM Paradise Run, to be held on Jan. 2018 at the SM Mall of Asia Event Grounds, in Pasay City.

CMR5, which was held January of this year, saw a record-breaking, sold-out event with 12,000 participants joining the race.  The event also got international recognition and was a Finalist for Asia Sports Industry Awards in Bangkok, Thailand, for both the Mass Participation category and the Best Integrated Marketing Campaign for a Sports Event category.  The event also got featured in various news outlets in 13 countries, including Malaysia, India, Turkey and Spain, among others.  

This year, they are targeting 15,000 runners who will get to enjoy the ‘Paradise-themed run’ which takes place on the first Sunday of 2018.  

CM Paradise Run includes four race distances, 3K, 5K, 10K and 21K.  The experience will take runners through various color stations with palm trees, garlands and hammocks.  This will be capped off with the CM Color Festival where runners will get to groove and dance to the music of the DJ, as they simultaneously throw colored powder in the air.
