All Things Color Run Festival!

Big shout out to Ashley Clayton Photos for these amazing captures of our day!

Ashley isn't just a random photographer to us, Ashley is one of our teammates! She is one of Hardship Heroes very own Board Members! Ashley brings so much to the table for a small organization like ours and we are so honored to have her on our team, as a supporter, cheerleader, sharer, photographer, idea maker and truly so much more! Thank you for all you do!

We are so incredibly thankful to have Mountain View Vineyard as the home of our Color Run Festival!

Their beautiful space gave us the perfect setting to bring this day to life! Full of color, energy, community, and of course IMPACT. It allowed us to create something that feels bigger than just an event… it becomes an experience!

We are beyond grateful to their team for opening their doors to us and trusting us with their space!

We are so excited to have welcomed Fusia Dance to our Color Run Festival!

As a studio they pride themselves as a family oriented space and they serve as a place of comfort and growth for all students.

They helped us bring together a celebration of culture and rhythm, and we are beyond thankful to have had them join us!

We were beyond excited to welcome back Banat Al Sahra , the incredible belly dance team that had the entire crowd absolutely mesmerized!

From the music… to the movement… to the energy they bring. People couldn’t look away, and honestly… we’re still not over it!

We were so thrilled to have them return and bring that same magic to this year’s festival!

The absolute VIBE of our event!!

We were beyond grateful to have DJ JFlow with Fresh Ambition  joining us once again for our Color Run Festival!

JP isn’t just a DJ randomly showing up... this is someone who has continuously shown up for Hardship Heroes, time and time again. His support and energy, do not go unnoticed.

He knows how to read a crowd, keep the energy high, and create the kind of atmosphere that turns an event into an EXPERIENCE!!

We were incredibly honored to welcome something truly special to our Color Run Festival this year!!

Joining us was Don Wild Eagle and his family, Patti North Star and Joachim Star Cloud! They shared their gifts, their culture, and their powerful presence with our community!

This was more than a performance.

This was a moment to learn, to feel, and to connect.

Thank you Sponsors Robert & Lindsay Larsen of Phoenix Athletica stepping in to support our Color Run Festival in such a BIG way.

They donated their time and skills to handle our signage and course layout! Something that is so important in creating an organized and safe event.

And truthfully… it’s something I can fully admit is not my area of expertise! That’s exactly why this means so much to us. Having people who know what they’re doing step in like this elevates the entire experience for everyone involved.

At their core, Phoenix Athletica is a hybrid fitness and nutrition coaching studio that specializes in personalized training programs designed around an individual. Helping people build long term healthy lifestyles through expert guidance and a supportive community.

Robert and Lindsay, thank you so much for showing up for us and our community!

We want to give a HUGE thank you to Lehigh Valley Health Network EMS -West End for being onsite during our Color Run Festival this coming Sunday!

Having a team like this onsite brings such an important level of safety and peace of mind to an event like this.

Knowing there are experienced and compassionate professionals there allows everyone to truly relax and enjoy the day!

So again, THANK YOU for helping us keep our event safe from start to finish!
