{Color}ful fun run!!

On saturday I dragged my family out of bed at 5:45am and we hopped in our super
amazing mini van that still graces our driveway, and we headed to Fair Park in Dallas!
Ok...so they dragged me out of bed, not the other way around.

This was my second Color Run and it was just as amazing as the first.
You show up early, stand around, listen to fun music, get pumped up and get free swag!!
Then they throw you over too the start line where you hit beach balls up in the air, 
dance around to the music and just prepare yourself for what's about to happen!

The Color Run is a 5K fun run, there are 4 color stations in the course.
You get hit with yellow, orange, pink and blue color.
They also had misters out that were spraying you with purple and green, that was new!!

This is pretty much one of the craziest races you can participate in.
I saw all kinds of outfits from tutu's to someone in a wedding dress....

It's such a fun race, the whole family can do it...
In fact we saw a little old grandma being pushed in a wheelchair through the course.
She had multi-colored grey hair at the end of the race! :)



If you're looking for a fun, easy race to get you motivated to exercise this is the one.
You can run, jog, walk, skip, roll through the whole thing.
& it's for a good cause, they pick a local charity to support in each city.
The charity we had was the American Heart Association.
So Check out the Website for the Color Run here.
And see if it's coming to a city near you :)



I hope you all have a great monday....
ok, who am i kidding...I hope your monday is bearable ;)
