Color Me Rad

For anyone who knows me I despise working out!  Especially running.  So you might find it quite entertaining that I RAN (well...mostly walked) a 5K with a few friends!

It was a very last minute thing.  One friend of Mary Kate & Ali's had to back out at the last minute and so they gave me a call!  Obviously they don't know me that well right, I don't like running or mornings!  Mary Kate is also the one who pinned me as a rebel in high school, so I question how well she knows me!  Ha ha ha...
It was pretty neat as I was reading the pre-race information and found out that all of the money raised went to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.  A cause that Jeremiah and I are always happy to support.

Anyways...I said yes because during this race you get a rainbow of color thrown on you!  There are 5 or so stations set out on the running path (okay walking path in this case) where there are volunteers who take colored cornstarch and throw (or spray) it on you as you run past.  When you are finished with the race you are a walking rainbow tye-dye mess!  Here are a few pics to prove...a. that I did it b. that it was quite the mess!

 
 My cheering section!  :)  And I guess that Mary Kate might know me better than I think because I had a really fun time!  :)  Thanks Mary Kate & Ali for the invite.

  1. Guess I will have to start throwing colored corn starch on my wife to get her to enjoy running/walking! Maybe a new 7:00 AM ritual?
