Interested in running a 5K in October? Several people are running the Color Me Rad 5K in Raleigh on October 26th at 9am. Details can be found here. If enough people are interested, we could carpool or travel together. Want to go, but you're just not sure if it sounds like fun? This excerpt came from the Color Me Rad website:
How it works:
Start out as clean as a newborn babe, and throughout the run, you'll coat your chaffing thighs with blue, green, pink, purple, and yellow until your face, shirt, and body come out silkscreened like a tie-dyed hippie on the other side. Yup...that is how you turn regular running into The Art of Running tm!
Each section of the run adds a new explosion of color to your clean, painter's palate until you cross the finish line into a final blitzkrieg of color.
What happens at the finish line?
This is the royal rumble of color. Every 15 – 20 minutes everyone will grab their Color Bombs and pummel each other until you're black and blue (from corn starch – no real bruising will occur). There will be music and other color doused participants welcoming you across the finish line with open arms. Hugs are free and just like any good AA meeting, spectators are welcome.
