I've been wanting to run a 5k for a while, I've signed up, flaked out, never got around to it. But when I saw the Color Me Rad Race, I knew I had to do it.
I talked my sister (and a few friends, who couldn't make it) into doing it......
Pre-Race. So pretty and clean!
Waiting for it to start.... chillin at the start line, freezing our butts off!
So during the race, you run through 4 or 5 color bomb stations.
This is what Kayla looked like after one of them..... good thing they gave us those sweet sunglasses to wear, right?
And this is what I looked like.....
By the end of the race, we were COVERED, which made me incredibly happy.
I'm pretty sure I have the most gorgeous sister ever, she's adorable!
And, I think everyone looks better while covered in hot pink powder, right?
Me, trying to see through the powder....
Check out those legs! Ow oww!
It's safe to say Kayla's pants are ruined.....
As is the entire outfit I was wearing... all for a good cause though!
pssst... check out the girl in green behind me..... ha! She got NAILED!
And, just so you know the SHEER AWESOMENESS that you missed out on..... there it is.
Gorgeous, Neon, Color Bombs, flying through the air.
Oh. Swoon.
If that's not the most beautiful thing you've ever seen..... right? It was AWESOME.
For the record, our skin was STAINED.
And it's safe to say that nearly every inch of my body was covered in this stuff, even the sections underneath the clothing.
I'll definitely be repeating this again next year, and whether I know you or not, you should join me!

I want to take part in something like that but in Polend we don't have such an event ;/
I'm so jealous!! I saw this recently and would totally love to do it some year! First, I need to get my butt in shape- I haven't ran in so long!
I am NOT a runner., however....I would love to hang out with you both and bring up the rear, all colorful. I bet the green girl wasn't a runner either and got nailed because of her non-speed.
Wow this really is sheer awesomeness! I can't think of a better way to get people to run. I'm definitely looking into this : ] Thanks for sharing!
(P.S.--I'm a new reader; found you through Send Something Good Project.)
