A little over a year ago I was not about running anytime, anywhere, not even to save my life. It just wasn’t worth it to me. Then persuaded and bribed by a friend I began to slowly get off the proverbial couch and start a run program. I never thought it would turn into me liking and dare I say l-o-v-i-n-g running. Now I’m still not one of those runners, the kind you see out in extreme weather and you think yeah I would rather be on the couch. I am all about the “fun run.” When I run I want it to be an awesome experience, nothing lame, nothing boring, nothing plain. Yes, if I am running a race of some sort I want it to be a party.
There are a lot of fun races out there, but only one can be the original.
The Color Run Kaleidoscope Tour is coming to a city near you and you do NOT want to miss it! They have hit the ground running, literally. The Color Run is a unique race that celebrates healthiness, happiness, and individuality. Since it debuted January 2012, The Color Run has tripled it’s growth with now more than 170 events in 30+ countries. It’s not called the Happiest 5K on the Planet for nothing, each The Color Run event includes fresh music, color crazy race attractions, and more! Everyone who registers gets a new t-shirt, headband, and awesome sling bag!
Let’s be real, it is now February. How are those goals looking? The Color Run is a great way to keep your momentum going or even as a perfect reason to restart your resolutions. Grab your friends, sign up for a race, download a running app and get moving! It is my first time running The Color Run and I can not wait. Don’t believe me? I dare you to look through all the pictures on their Facebook page and NOT get excited.

February 3, 2014 at 6:10 pmReally cool, I registered for the first time this year. I’m looking forward to participating. I did several runs last year but didn’t get a chance to do this one. This year I’m all signed up and ready to go.

February 4, 2014 at 12:48 pmThis looks like a fun race but I can not run this one. I am very sensitive to dust and smoke so I would be coughing bad

February 5, 2014 at 9:38 amTara I am sensitive too but I ended up covering my mouth so I wouldn’t inhale anything. BUt I understand completely if you do not feel it’s safe. Feel free to pass on the info the family and friends ๐

February 6, 2014 at 1:31 pmI have yet to run a color run but from the looks of my friend’s pics it seems like it’s a blast. Maybe I’ll have to get out there this year. Thanks for the promo code!
