We got to Victoria Park just after 8am, we covered our self's in body paints and geared up for our first Color Run. The queue to get past the start line was slow, I did wonder if they could release the groups of people a little quicker, but once you were walking it all seemed to flow really well. The organisers have obviously researched this one.
My husband and eldest son started with a jog and I walked with my little guy. It was 5kms of fun, normally a big walk would have my little one dragging his feet, but the anticipation of colours, glitter and snow being put on us was much to much fun.
This walk was obviously designed for just fun, serious runners might be disappointed that times were not recorded, but that was not needed today. As we crossed the finish line and was awarded our medals we discussed what we would do next year.
This was a nice little lead up to my big walk next week for the 'City to Bay'.
