Lavender Run

The Lavender Run is a unique color run event held at Shades of Lavender in Mattawan, Michigan. Participants enjoy a scenic 2.1-mile (3.4 km) course that loops six times through sunflower fields, White Pine forest, lavender fields, and farmland, featuring two color checkpoints where runners are playfully sprayed with eco-friendly purple mica powder and cornstarch. The event begins and ends with a sun salutation yoga flow to stretch and relax muscles, with an optional cool-down meditation in forest hammocks.

Entry includes a choice of refreshing electrolyte elixirs. The run offers a fun, wellness-focused experience blending nature, fitness, and mindfulness. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
