Color Me RAD 5K

Saturday we all ran in a 5K race called Color Me Rad it was SO fun!  I highly recommend it for your family.  It was messy (which the kids loved) and it was good exercise and you didn't feel like you had to run the whole time.  Perfect for my kids that said about half way through the race that they might die:)  They were fine, they did not die:)

It is very different from any race that I had ever ran before.  It was relaxed and fun...good figure;)

Basically you just run/walk along and at different stations you got colored corn starch thrown on you....so fun!

What we did not expect was how messy we got!!!  We were covered and it was very interesting trying to figure out how we were going to get home and take showers since we didn't bring towels:/ No sure how I forgot that!  We managed but my car is just a bit more colorful than before!  

It took us two showers each to get all the color off.  Abby had a blue scalp and Greg had a purpleish beard for about a day:)  I on the other hand was green and Reese was kinda, well brown....he looked scary.  See below.
Oh and Saturday night we figured out that if we blew our nose our snot was colored! Good times:)

The before

before the race even started my kids were getting us colorful...thank you kids:)

Greg bombing the kids....color in ears,  color in eyes.  color in our underpants?  weird right?  haha!

kinda dirty before start...oh we had no idea what we were in for!

The blue station.
That girl looks like a smurf.  I can't imagine her ever  being "peach" again:)  Good luck girl.  

Approaching the pink station.  Crazy right?
Walking into that haze was so weird. 

About halfway we took a tiny break.  Remember the kids were dying?;)
We look pretty good eh?

The kids kept throwing it in our faces.  Fun.

Greg was covered....hilarious!

Yep.
He was in heaven.
 He can make a mess like nobody's business!!

Close to the finish line.  We thought it was over...we were SO wrong.

the FINAL picture after we got bombed about 20 times more!!!  Wow!

She cracks me up!  

He had color in the most unusual places.
He was the most colorful BY far!
BTW this morning (Tuesday) his legs and back were still a little green! 

Me.
Mostly orange and green...not sure why?

and there's Greg....HA!

Hanging out after the race.

Me and my girl.
