Color Run

If anyone ever tries to convince you to sign up for a Color Run (or any version thereof) DO NOT DO IT! HA! :) No really, it was pretty fun. Indianapolis' was held on July 20th (what? I'm a little behind. You knew that.) and was SOLD OUT. You guys, 10,000 people paid to come out early, run AND have people throw a chalk-like substance at them ruining their clothes and shoes. Wait, what? Yep. It makes right at zero sense, but that is how I feel about a lot of things. ;):) Basically you arrive wearing all white and then you run a 5k with color stations where people throw stuff at you. I didn't breathe in the color stations. Jackson did. He said it was awful. Ha! :) The route for the 5k was that of the end of the Mini-Marathon I nearly died doing completed in May so I kept yelling about having horrible flashbacks.Poor Jackson is so used to my dramatic excited nature that such proclamations didn't even phase him. We had great weather for the 5k and even planned ahead enough to bring beach towels to sit on for the drive home. Our showers afterwards were certainly colorful! I have another similar run scheduled with my friend Amber in September. Jackson thinks he may be retired from such runs. I don't blame him. ;)
