Color Run 2012

Months ago, Eryn spotted The Color Run online and convinced me to join her for this messy race.

The 5K was at Portland International Raceway. We all wore white, and at four points along the course, volunteers tossed colored powdered on us. It was quite an experience!

All clean and ready to go!

Lynn was our only friend brave enough to join us. She is awesome!

Time to line up:

While he waited, Brad found these kiddos going nuts with an "empty" barrel of yellow powder!

Coming through the yellow station:

The home stretch:

We were each given a packet of color and told to save it for the finish. Every 15 minutes or so, the DJ started a little dance party and then we all threw our powder. It was really cool!

 

 

We did it several times for maximum color!

As usual, Mom and Dad were our trusty support crew. But they did not want to get close to that mess :)

Volunteers armed with leaf blowers helped get off the excess powder before we headed to our cars:

Then Mom and Dad treated us to breakfast/lunch at nearby Cup and Saucer:

Good stuff!

So much fun! And I would definitely do it again - with even more friends!!! :)
