The course will be punctuated by color stations where you'll get doused in vibrant powders, adding to the festive mood. The focus will be on enjoying the experience, connecting with others, and celebrating the cause.

Weather snapshot (AI-assisted text)

Taking place in Eau Claire, WI in mid-April, you can expect typical spring weather. Temperatures could range from cool to mild, potentially requiring layers at the start. While April can bring anything from sunshine to rain, it's generally a time of transition, so be prepared for variable conditions.

Terrain & course feel (AI-assisted text)

Given it's a 'walk/run' 5K fundraiser in a city setting, the terrain is most likely paved roads or well-maintained park paths. It's generally safe to assume a relatively flat course, suitable for all ages and abilities, unless specific elevation challenges are mentioned.
