5k race, you wear a white shirt and each k you get splashed with a different color....just looks fun and a little different than the typical 5k

I'm debating the DC one in sept.....anyone else looking at it?

    I'll be in Orlando while that one is going on so a part of me is thinking about it... however I'll be there for a disney vacation and not sure how DH will feel about taking time out for my run... oh and DH wouldn't do it with me... because he hates getting dirty.

    I just saw this on pinterest...it looks like so much fun! I've e-mailed the link to folks and look forward to finding out more information. I am really hoping they don't try to make a person sign up for Facebook in order to do this. I would like to do the Orlando run.
    I hope anyone that has done one, or when they do; they blog their experience for the rest of us, I'd love to read about it :>)

    I have friends in Boulder that want me to come out and do the Denver one with them - depends on plane tickets, but i might do it!

    I'll probably have to make a trip somewhere, and convince family to do it with me but that would be even more fun!

    We are planning on doing the the one here in Denver as a family thing, a way that my super runner husband, my wannabe self, and our 7 year old can go out and run something together where no one is looking for a PR.
