About a month and a half ago, my friend Meagan signed up for the Color Me Rad 5k in Hartford and I saw a link to it on facebook and was intrigued by it. It was a race where you start out with a white shirt and then get color bombed with colored cornstarch while running the race so you come out looking like a tie-dyed crazy person! I had been wanting to do a 5k for a while now, but no race really sparked my interest as I hadn't had the time to formally train for one. So when I saw this Color Me Rad 5k, it looked like a lot of fun with all of the color stations and no timing as to when one finished. It was more about having fun than really being a race - and that's exactly what I was looking for! So, I signed up for it. And in the process of signing up I noticed it was perfect timing - the race was the day after my 30th birthday and I couldn't imagine a better start to a new decade than with a splash of color from the Color Me Rad 5k!
Unfortunately, I don't have any before pictures but just imagine us with pure white shirts!

We survived and crossed the finish line!
