In late January last year, I completed my first-ever 5k… “the happiest 5k on the planet” – The Color Run. You can read all about that 2013 Color Run experience here. Due to some rare Phoenix rain, it was a soggy, colorful mess! But, I had a blast with the #AZColorBloggers. In fact, I had so much fun, that I went on to do three more 5k events before the summer heat hit. I was doing great with being active and losing weight, but then the fall of medical crises happened. And, I allowed that stress to sort of take over everything (my healthy eating & working out sort of went out the window). So, I am beyond excited that I’ll be participating in the 2014 Color Run in Tempe in a few weeks to help get myself back in gear!
This year, The Color Run has announced the Kaleidoscope Tour! They’re promising Color crazy race attractions, fresh music, and fun new new participant gear. The sling bag looks super cute!
Aside from the whole event just being a bunch of colorful fun, what I especially love is that it’s for anyone! Yes, anyone! Whether you’re a first time runners (or even just a walker) or professional athletes, the Color Run is a blast! There are no winners or official times. It’s just a fun way to do something active with friends/family!
So, do you want to join us on January 25th in Tempe…or participate when it comes to your city?! If so, you’re in luck because I have a $5 off discount code good for registration in ANY city!
