At the end of August my friend and I entered the color run.
The night before the run I felt nervous and thought I had made a mistake as I am not the fittest person and was worried that I may not be able to do 5kms. It didn't take long to realise that those thoughts were ridiculous. The journey into the city, although very early, was fun as at each train stop more and more color runners joined the train. Once we got to the event there was such a good vibe with music playing and people chatting.
We got our much needed cup of coffee before the race to energise us and get ourselves more pumped for the run.
The actual running part of the fun run was nothing to worry about as there were plenty of people walking and even dancing their way through the track. My friend and I did run a lot of the way, it was surprising how fast it went by as we were having so much fun while running it didn't seem so bad.
The festival afterwards was fun as everyone was in such high spirits, congratulating everyone and dancing to the music that was blasting.
I'm so happy that I pushed myself to do the color run and can not wait till it comes back to Sydney.
Here are a few pics from the day.

At the start line - look at all the people!

This was taken after a huge colour throw in the crowd at the festival after the run.

So many colourful people.
We couldn't stop smiling - happiest 5K on the planet!
Someone brought their dogs. I couldn't help but ask to take a photo of them.
And to celebrate we bought cronuts.
I had the best time doing the color run. If you ever get a chance to do it, then DO IT!!
