On Saturday I participated in the Run or Dye 5k at Harriet Island in St. Paul. Last year I really wanted to do the Color Run but was unable to because of my schedule so when I saw this run I was very excited to participate. I ran with my friends I have met through the Miss America system; Mary Petersen, Natalie Davis, Alison Vail, and Jackie Thurlow. Run or Dye is a 5k that uses chalk dust to cover the participants in a variety of colors. We started with white t-shirts and before we even began the 5k we were tie dyed in vibrant colors. Besides the mouth full of chalk dust and the horrible blister I got, this event was a blast and we are already planning our group for the Color Run in July!
Until next time,
