Color Run 2015

I ran the Color Run on Saturday with Molly and Avery. We created a team way back in the winter and had a few others from Piketon join in on the fun.

I had done the Color Run in 2012 with my brother, cousin and some friends. It was fun, so I was looking forward to doing it again this year. The route was completely different. It didn't take us through Victorian Village, but we did go thru Franklinton. Basically the same place, right? ha. 

Avery was adamant she was walking this 5K, but guess who ended up running the first mile and would have to stop, run backwards or run the opposite flow of traffic to meet back up with Molly and me? Our little Avery who wasn't going to run.  #thatgirl :) We might have all walked the majority of the rest of the run (it was very crowded) and then of course ran to the finish line. 

We had four color stations - orange, yellow, pink, and blue - and then the glitter station (our favorite). 

When you have just a few colors on you, it's pretty. But by the time you've done all the stations, then participate in the little color throw party at the end, you're just a mess of colors and kind of look (and feel!) dirty. But it's still a lot of fun. 

I took my phone, but never took it out of my sports bra (TMI?). Molly took all of the pictures.

It was a little hot. I was a little sweaty. 

Obviously the color and my sweat created stains.

We sweat glitter.

Next time I want to volunteer to be the person who throws the color on the runners. I think that would be the most fun!

Not me. Stole in from the internets.
