Adding colours to a unique charity run

A sight to behold: Zairil flagging off the runners as they douse each other with coloured powder during the Rainbow Run at Polo Ground.

PENANG’s first Rainbow Run lived up to its name as its participants were sprinkled with powder of various colours as they ran along the 5km route.

Many of the 5,400 participants were already covered in the coloured particles when the event was flagged off at the Polo Ground at 7am on Sunday.
