The Color Run

Today was Cleveland's first annual Color Run. Its a 5k "run" with 4 color stops along the way. At each color stop people throw powdery paint on you. At the end of the race you are covered with yellow, green, blue and orange paint. However, in your race bag, you are given your own bag of paint for the finish line. Every 15minutes or so, runners that have just finished gather in a crowd and throw their paint bags (which include every color of the rainbow) in the air resulting in a huge paint cloud and you walking away with paint in places you just don't want paint!
The before shot:
Ellie and Zach kept back a safe distance with Gram while the big boys hung out with their friends Layla and Aeylen (and Bailey of course).
After:
It went through our shoes and socks and shirts and other stuff!
The ride home:
It was their first race so it was slightly unorganized. Parking was a joke and we had more waiting around especially at the beginning than anyone would have liked, but we still had a good time. I've never been so happy to have a shower!
