I had an inkling that today's 5k color run was going to be fun, but I had no idea it was going to be THAT much fun! I have friends who have done the run and loved it, but I didn't think I was going to have as much as they had (it involved running, people, running!). But I am here today to tell you that if you have never ran in a color run, you need to sign up for one!
My friends Sydney and Carolynn and I signed up saying that we were going to run the 5k, and run we did. It really wasn't even that long/terrible/exhausting! I surprised myself by running the entire thing without walking. I think what motivated me to not stop was that I know how athletic my family is and I wanted to be able to tell them I ran through with no walking (thanks for the unintentional motivation, fam!). Not to mention having colors thrown at you at each kilometer was also motivating, as well as fun.
We had so much fun and the weather was absolutely beautiful. I am so glad I signed up to do the run with all my friends, and I cannot wait to do it again next year!

My confession: I surprised myself by running a 5k all the way through, and I couldn't be more proud of myself!

Thank you, friends!
