The Color Run is a 5k (3.1 miles), but it's not meant to be competitive. It's known as "the happiest 5k on the planet" and I can guarantee that you won't leave there unhappy. You're supposed to wear all white to the race, and every kilometer you enter a color zone and are blasted with a specific color. Then at the end of the race there is a big color party, where everyone throws up their packet of color during a massive dance party.
Oh my gosh. I can't even tell you how much fun it was! So I'll just show you instead :)
We all had SO much fun and I know Adam & I plan on doing more 5ks like this!
Real talk: if you have the opportunity to do The Color Run (or a similar race)...
DO IT! You won't be sorry, promise!
This looks like so much fun! I love all of your pictures... they inspire me to do this. I definitely want to!! We had a "color run" obstacle course type thing at the Youth summer camp I volunteered for this past July.. it as a blast. Doing this one day! Thanks for the inspiration, pretty girl :) love you! XO

I did Color Me Rad {the knock off version of The Color Run} back in July and it was sooo much fun. I wanted to do The Color Run also, but I was mid-half marathon training, so I opted not to.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you guys had a blast :)

Wow, that looks like so much fun!! I totally want to do that!
ReplyDeleteHeather - I kept my phone in a Ziploc bag and it was totally fine! Adam kept his phone out the entire time to take pictures - he kept it in his pocket during the "color zones" and we had no problems :)
ReplyDeletenow this is a marathon I would be interested in running! Looks like so much fun!
