Tickle me pink...and purple, and blue, and green, and yellow.....

   Several months ago, before the craziness of moving and T traveling for business for the next two weeks popped up, we had signed up to run a 5k that was scheduled for this morning. We've had to change a few of our other plans, but I'm too frugal (cheap) to not do something that I've already paid for. Plus...this was not your typical 5k race. This was the Color Me Rad race.

  Here's our before picture.


   The Color Me Rad is basically a 5k where at various stations throughout the races you run through a little area where people throw colored corn starch all over you! By the time you get to the finish line you look like you've been swimming in a pool filled with melted Skittles. You can also get Color Packs and throw extra color all other each other.

  We got some extra packs, and went a little crazy. Here's T before the race even got started.


  I'm usually super competitive when it comes to running in a race, but not today. This was just for fun, and it was a blast!

  Here's a picture of the finish line. No, it wasn't raining.....that's colored corn starch flying around everywhere!



   My friend Callie and I at the finish line! I must say, Callie definitely had the best tie-dyed face out of all of us! It was awesome!


  T and I at the finish line. Definitely a different look from the clean picture at the beginning of this post!
