Color Run

Finally that day came! Me and Brandon were out early (before 6am) on the road to Allentown. I got everything ready ahead of time, even put address in GPS so I could just carry him in the car and let him sleep. Fat chance. He was wide awake and excited!

We witnessed gorgeous sunset although my camera did a VERY lame job picturing it.

We found parking in time and easy. Here we were on the way to pick our packets and have fun. Look at the beautiful lake behind us! (never mind Brandon's body language regarding picture taking :)

For the first time, I can imagine, it was overwhelming for Brandon to see so many people around us. All excited, dressed up and ready to go. There was a huge party going on doing Zumba, loud music and lots of laughs around us. 

We got in line to take our packets and then in another one in store line. I got cool up to my knees pink stockings. Yay! 

I guess it is! 

 Totally!

 He is getting the idea! :)

 Oh we did!

 Clean looking fellas

At the start where all of a sudden Brandon said he did not want to do it anymore. I get it - it is nerves.. Been there, done that.

We ran for a while until we got the first station - blue. So fun! They tried to squirt us with blue color out of squeeze bottles and Brandon was trying to get away. This one lady yelled - "He needs for a butt!" and she covered his butt with blue, we laughed!

We worked out our way - Brandon ran in the middle to get as little color as possible and I tried to ride on the side to get more color. It was hard because majority of our run/walk we did while holding hands.

So many runners/walkers. It was getting hotter and I could not believe I did not take any water. I mean I had plenty of it in the cooler in the car but none with me and I even had a backpack. What in the world was I thinking? He was getting thirsty fast!

After yellow station we did get some water. Phew, it was not that difficult after all. We did the guessing game trying to see who is right about the next station's color.

This picture opportunity was not to be missed. Absolutely beautiful, just one random tree somewhere in the middle with all those leaves down.

Oh yes, we can see it!

 Brandon's fav!

Loved this sign! :) (instead of call me may be)

Orange was most forceful meaning staff not letting people going without making sure we had enough color :)

 Haha, ignore Phili half backpack :)

Pink was last and that is how much color dust you can see from far away

 Yes, baby, we finished!

 Messy team of us :)

May be if I had pretty dress on, photo might have looked prettier but may be I will pretend I am not even there :) just the lake view :)

I have to say this kind of race is for fun only. There was no huge satisfaction kind of like "I can not believe I did it because it was so hard!" I am super happy I got to do it with Brandon, he said he would like to do it again.

We had great bonding time. We talked non stop in between singing to BTR in the car, we held hands 80% of time being at the race..We laughed, just really had a good time. I love one on one time!

Who knows, may be next year we will actually run it :)
Love me some him!
