COLOR-ful!!!

I am really not into running 5Ks (or any other crowded, timed races), but I saw a video for this Color Run and something made me want to do it.  None of my close friends were interested...so I was VERY grateful that a casual friend of mine and her mom signed up so I didn't have to go alone. 

It turned out to be a BLAST!   So much fun, and it's not timed or anything, so you can walk, run, jog, push strollers, whatever.  Every kilometer you get doused with a new color (it's harmless powder that washed easily off in the shower).  At the end it's one big party, lots of dancing, and more powder being thrown.   There were tons of kids, there were people in tutus, there was a man in a chicken outfit, there was a man/woman (I wasn't sure) in a wedding dress...   I definitely got ideas for what I might want to do next year, and the fact that I am already looking forward to next year says a lot.  Find the one coming to a city near you and take out the kids and do it.  SO much fun!!

Even Little Kids love it!

 

 

Every 15 mins at the ending party they do a Color Burst...this is what it's like being in the middle of that -
