Color Me Rad was just such a race! Basically, you run a 5K, and while you're running, these packets of color get thrown on you, so by the end, you are completely covered with color! Everyone wears all white, and you end up with this beautiful, crazy, explosion of color at the end!
I had a friend that was going to do the race with me, but she ended up not being able to do it, so I just went down by myself to do it. Thanks to my friend Shari who let me stay overnight at her house--since the race started at 7am!
My pre-race, all-white outfit:
Lots of white-clad runners:
We ran through the Gaslamp Quarter, and there were signs up all over for Buffini's Mastermind Summit--something that Mom went to every year.
Through the pink station! (the pictures are hazy, because I had my camera in a plastic baggie)
The finish line was the purple station:
My finish line shot!
After the finish, they had a big area where they would do a color blast. Everyone was handed a color packet, and we all threw them up in the air--so fun! Watch the video to see:

I just found your blog through your runDisney retweet. I LOVED color me rad when I did it last spring. I'm running in the tink half too and am so excited! Hope to see you blogging again soon :)
