Color Run


We were out the door at 5:15am for today's Color Run at Qualcomm Stadium.  The girls made cute matching tutu's and we wore as much white as possible to show off all of our color.

 Check-in was smooth and we got these cool shirts, headbands, tattoos and tote bags.
After a fun Zumba warm up, we followed the sea of white to the start line.  They sent us off in groups so we could be spread out enough to all get color-coated!
One final "clean" shot before making our way on the course.  The girls took off ahead of Leslie and I and we agreed on a meeting spot at the finish.  Leslie and I ran about 2 miles of the 5K and walked the rest.  There were color stations where volunteers sprayed us with color and cheered us on.
 By the time we reached the finish line, we were pretty well coated head to toe, down our shirts, in our ears, etc.


 The girls had more color fun by putting chalk on the drums
 and throwing color packets in the crowd.


Before we exited, we lined up to get cleaned off by the leaf blowers, but that only helped a little.  We looked a little silly going out to breakfast at Mimi's, but it was a very fun event!
