I spent this past weekend in Las Vegas and participated in The Color Run!
As part of living my year with "Adventure" - the big and the small - I jumped at the chance to get in on all the fun this 5k run had to offer as quickly as possibly!
I happened across a post my cousin made about it on Facebook, checked it out, watched the You tube video and was hooked! It was the perfect last minute getaway for me and a friend as our reward for the 2 months of work we have put into a local school project.
The Color Run is a 5k fun run for all ages where every kilometer they blast you with a different colored chalky powder. All runners are required to start the race in a white tshirt. Here is us before....
AND US AFTER!!!
It is a complete BLAST!!! I highly recommend it!!! We ran with about 6 -7,000 other people. At the end they have a color festival where everyone gets to throw a pouch of color!
If The Color Run is coming to a city near you or not near you (heck I traveled 7 hours to go to this one!)DO IT!!! You will have a great time! (fyi - they sell out of spots in each city it goes to so register early if you can!)
Here's a short slide show of several photos from that event!
(plus I have shared some photos on my Facebook page too!)

After the run we headed out on the town for more fun! Wild that I could go from painted up and "dirty" to painted up and "pretty" - LOL - in a short amount of time on the same day!
Have you participated in The Color Run ?
