The Color Run, Bigger Than Ever!!

It's happening again!! The Happiest 5k on the Planet is back for more fun! The Color Run is one of my favorite races and definitely the best 5k around!

The Color Run is fun for everyone! It is a fabulous event that with make people of all ages want to run through the color. Look how much fun my family had last year at this wonderful event.

This year it is going to be bigger than ever! The Color Run will have fresh music, Color crazy race attractions, some amazing swag including headband, wrist band and sling bag) plus it's going to be in more cities than ever before! You can find one near you here also they are offering $5 off your registration when you use the code "COLOR5OFF"

Gather your friends and family and be prepared to get healthy and have a blast while doing it! Be sure to stick around after you get done with your 5k and enjoy the after party. Every 15 minutes there is a giant color explosion that is sure to turn you completely into a smurf if you weren't able to get as saturated in color during the race as you wanted to!

Every year this race gets better and better. This will be my third year running it. I feel like that makes me an expert! Some do's and don'ts of The Color Run are:

Do sign up with friends! The more the merrier when it comes to making color snow angels on the ground. 

Don't wear your expensive watch or bring your cell phone with you while you are racing! You will have color every where and don't want to ruin your electronics!

Do use ziploc bags for the stuff you want to keep clean and don't open the bag until you are completely clean. 

Do take advantage of the giant leaf blower! It will get the excess color off you and don't worry you will still look like a smurf! 

Don't wear your brand new running shoes unless to plan to ruin them with color. 

Do keep your mouth closed when running through the color stations. I ended up with some beautiful blue teeth in all my pictures last year! 

Do have the time of your life and make great memories!
