Color Me Rad was awesome, but here are some tips for those running in it (or another color run) in the future!
- Wear lots and lots of white! Go crazy! I wish I had worn white knee high socks with the white racerback tank I made (courteous of Pinterest).
- If you're sensitive to your skin being covered with color (it comes off after a few showers) then wear long sleeves and pants... just make sure they're white :-)
- Be goofy! Funky sunglasses (they gave us some great ones!), tutus, etc.
- WEAR SUNGLASSES - it will get in your eyes
- Keep your mouth closed when running through color stations... it doesn't taste good. (sorry to the little girl who I accidentally gave a mouthful of color to)
- Bring baby wipes to clean up your hands.. or attempt to (especially if you have to drive!)
- Bring a trash bag (and have easy access to it) for after -- you will want to take as much clothing off as possible before getting into your car
- Bring a towel or old blanket to sit on in the car
- MAKEUP remover - unless you want to go out to lunch after showering and still look like you have a black eye or bruise on your forehead
- Wear your old shoes
- Bring a photographer or put your camera in a ziploc bag (or two)
- MOST IMPORTANT: make a plan to immediately shower afterwards... or go hang out in a field where you don't care about color ruining everything you touch!
It's a BLAST! HAVE FUN!
