Basically, it's an un-timed fun run. You wear white and are given a packet of color powder. Along the 5K route there are color stations where people are tossing color out as you pass by. The more color the better!!
It was a gorgeous morning!! The athletic end of it was iffy. If you wanted color, you had to walk through the color stations -not run- and a lot of people were walking anyway so you were constantly weaving, but all in all, I'm glad I did it. And I love that my mommy friends aren't afraid to sweat either!
As a bonus, I got my new Influenster Vox Box to try out too!! If you haven't tried Influenster, you should. They give you products to review, every so often. The more "public" you are, the more you get to review. I have only received 3 Vox Boxes, so far but I hope to get more... it's a bit like Christmas when one arrives. ;)
Anyway, they sent out their Active Series Vox Box, which came with Dr. Scholl's Acive Series Insoles.
I literally got this box the day before the Color Run. Perfect. I slipped them in my shoe and waited for the big day.
Decision: A+ for those insoles! I already love my shoes but these added a whole new level of cushion and comfort. For real. They were thin and small (so they didn't disrupt my shoe or the feel) but they were very cozy. Good deal!
As for the Color Run, I'm glad I did it. It was really fun! We will see if I do another race anytime soon. They are money ...and... I still run like a turtle. Jim and I talked about doing the Tough Mudder in the Summer. We'll see. As long as I'm not knocked up and we can scrounge up the cash, I want to go for it!
