the color run

ever since i started running marathons, i haven't done many shorter races. i am definitely more of a distance runner, but it's fun to do a shorter race every once in a while is fun. i was really excited to have the opportunity to run the color run. 

\the weather all week was pretty bad. it rained and rained and rained, and i kind of dreaded the mess of it all. i woke up early that morning to get in some extra marathon training miles. the weather was terrible-thunder, lightning, monsoon rain. a couple of hours later, the weather was absolutely perfect. 
thank you agnes and dora and flippin waffles for sponsoring my outfit
my co-worker chris came and ran with me. we had such a fun time.
start line. we accidentally got in the stroller side

at the end. 
this really is the happiest 5K. we couldn't have asked for a better day. i'm so glad i did it. i will definitely do it again.

  1. The one color run I did was during sort of a spitting rain! I was glad it wasn't pouring, but it was still kind of yucky and gross! I would love to do a Color Run with my family on a nicer day!! Love your outfit!

  2. Yay! So fun! I would love to do one of these. However, in my case it would a Color Walk.

  3. Gosh, I haven't done a 5k in forever, but they have a special place in my heart because I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be considering an ultra if I'd never set foot in a 5k.
