A rainbow appears to an observer as being along a cone whose pointed top is centered at their head and the cone base is directly opposite the light source. You can make them with garden hoses sprayed in the air in the direction opposite the sun, too.

If you move, the cone moves with you, so you can never reach the location of the rainbow. Everybody sees their own, too.

Just like you can never catch up with the shadow of your head on the ground. If you move, so does your shadow!
