Clarksville, TN – In September 2013, Austin Peay State University hosted its inaugural Gov “Color” Run, a one-mile race around campus through cloudbursts of color.
The event, which continued last year, was originally marketed as a way of bringing together APSU students and community members for an affordable color run.

At 6:00pm on September 26th, the color run will return to campus, but the APSU Alumni Relations Office is now using the popular event to help deserving students earn a college education.
This year, participants will see more paint, a longer race path and bigger surprises, while also helping to fund scholarships.
Tickets for the color run are $20.00 until August 31st, and $25.00 after that date. The event is open to the community, and children five and under run free. Registration is available online at https://govrun2015.eventbrite.com [2].
