Saturday's Color Run colored some Salt Lake City neighborhoods with hues of the rainbow.

Billed as "The happiest 5K on the planet," this un-timed run doused participants with colors along the route from Library Square to Liberty Park and back.

Since its genesis in 2011, The Color Run has grown to more than 170 events in 30-plus countries. For more information on future runs go to thecolorrun.com.
