This-- you will LOVE!

This is called THE COLOR RUN
They made a booming expansion across the United States this year-- attempting to establish one Color Run in every state. Portland hosted Color Run for the first time this year. I went ahead and established a team online so anybody could take advantage of the discount and be able to join in this colorful fun.
Not only that, it became a biggest sensation-- Portland hosted 20,000 participants! They declared it was the largest 5k event in the USA! Way to go Portlanders!
Not just that... but I hosted the biggest unofficial team for the Deaf community-- about 30 Deaf people had participated (some from Salem, some from Seattle).
MAX lines (Portland's electric public transport trains) were backed up for more than a hour carrying participants to the event.
IT WAS THAT POPULAR!!!
We didn't give a rat's butt! We still showed up regardless if we were late. People were still coming in and starting running and walking.
We rolled in the colors, we entered every kilometer stations with a different color tossed at us! COLOR US!!! We picked up every color we could! JUMPED! ROLLED! SPINNED!
It did not matter how we got to each station, we walked, ran, skipped, hopped.... we were having fun!

| Colored! |
| To Power of Color! |
If your town/state has already run the event-- please keep this in mind for next year. If it is still available and coming up soon-- try to catch it! (it usually raises fees as time approaches-- so if it's expensive-- try to catch the cheap fees next year). <3
Here's to fun adventures ahead of us!
