The Colour Run

Today I ran ‘The Colour Run’.

It’s publicised as ‘the happiest 5k on the planet’ and I have to agree actually! To begin with we were very white and clean, but by the end I was covered in dyed powder in all different colours 🙂

The race involves running 5k through at least 4 ‘colour zones’ where you will get pelted with 100% natural, food dyed, food grade corn-starch in either Pink, Orange, Blue, Yellow, Purple or Green. There is also a ‘wet zone’ where you run through coloured water and a ‘snow zone’ where you run through foam. I ran through Blue, Yellow, Green and Pink dye zones and a Purple wet zone and overall came out quite messy!

It was great fun, though we didn’t really run very much of the route…we walked it!
