It looks like so much fun!! And it's NOT timed!

About
When Zoloft and balloon animals can't seem to raise your spirits, the best way to brighten your life is to Color Yourself Rad.
Color Me Rad is coming to a town near you with a tsunami of color. Once you set foot in this holy bath, it will make the blind see, the deaf hear, and the lame walk, run, and jump through 5 kilometers of colorful debauchery. *
You’ll start off with a shirt as pure and white as Mother Teresa’s saintly soul and wind up looking like a pack of skittles – just make sure not to “taste the rainbow.â€
So cast your DYE and get red in the face from Color Me Rad, and not from the embarrassment of passing up on the run of a lifetime.
*These statements have not been validated by the FDA, God, or common sense.
How it works:
Start out as clean as a newborn babe, and throughout the run, you'll coat your chaffing thighs with blue, green, pink, purple, and yellow until your face, shirt, and body come out silkscreened like a tie-dyed hippy on the other side.
Each section of the run adds a new explosion of color to your clean, painter’s palate until you cross the finish line into a final blitzkrieg of color.
What is the “color†in Color Me Rad?
You’re probably asking yourselves, “Is this really color being thrown at us or are the rainbows we’re seeing just God’s signal that it’ll never flood again?â€
Well I’m glad you asked. This isn’t just smoke and mirrors. This is non-toxic, non-rash-inducing, Kroger branded, colored corn-starch. Subsidized by the government and processed in the good ol’ US of A, these blasts of starch will change your color, and your demeanor, but never your level of wellness.

If you would like to preserve the color in your running shirt, spray it with vinegar and iron it before you wash it. For FULL color cleaning ideas and tips, check THIS LINK out!

I'm soooooo excited, and I just can't hide it... I'm about to lose control and I think I like it... Whoop! When you break out in some Pointer Sisters tunes, makes you want to dance...
But, I'm pretty psyched about the CMR in Billings Montana this Saturday - October 27th... wondering if I'll find any other MFPers that are gonna be running it as well?!??0 -
I did it in Oklahoma City in July. It was SOOOOO much fun!!!!0
