When Life Gives You Rain, Make a Rainbow!

OMG I'm pumped!!! We ran the color run today, and yes it was POURING rain, but we had the BEST time!!! Take a look!!

After the finish! I'm in the middle with my sister in-law on the left and our friend D on the right.

Fierce women of color!

Finished and rockin the head band! 

Color. Color. C.O.L.O.R!!!! Thanks Target for the fabulous socks!  

I nabbed these rockin sunglasses as they were being thrown into the crowd. YAY! That almost never happens!  

Finally back at the house, FREEZING but SO STOKED we didn't bail on account of the rain! 

Before we got colored crazy! Flexing our color run tats, heehee! 

Holy moly, I cannot say enough about the Color Run. Yes. It is a bit pricey. $45 for early registration and $55 for late, but WOW! What a great 5k with such colorful energy from all the participants! We got there a bit late because of traffic, the rain and trying to decide if the race would even happen. But turns out, a lot of others were running late on at that account too, so it all worked out!

I ran the entire race, only jogging in place a few times until I got the chance to pass the walkers, and felt fabulous all the way to the finish line! Everything was perfect about today but that was a great bonus! I'm not sure of my time, but I wasn't worried about it. I went to have fun and I did! A lot of it! What a fabulous day to add to the memory bank... The rain was actually a great addition to the day too. In actuality, the color sticks surprisingly well being wet and ends up MORE brilliant than before. SCORE! I want to share every color run, in the future, with the rain! It added a bigger element of flare and definitely made the memory so unique!

Heres a short clip of the after party, ha! SO MUCH FUN!

We had plans of going to breakfast afterwards but that wasn't too well thought out. I'm almost certain, no one would have allowed us seating looking like we did, ha! We ended up going back to the house where my mama in-law had yummy biscuits, turkey bacon, scrambled eggs and coffee waiting. PERFECT! We were frozen so coffee couldn't have sounded better... I grabbed a shower, anxious to see how well the color washed off, and although you definitely have to scrub, it comes out. I wasn't so sure about sporting an orange face and blue arm pits for more than a day, lol!

In short---CRAZY AWESOME FUN! If you ever get the chance to run one of these, or something similar to to it. DO IT! You wont be disappointed!

How was every ones Saturday? Full of color and cheer I hope!!
