Amy saw a post on facebook for an upcoming 5K Run and decided to recruit some friends. She put out a feeler and got a dozen people interested in doing it together! She had asked Kris if he was interested, but no such luck. He asked how the race worked; to which Amy replied - "Well, it is a 5K race through Elitch Gardens Amusement Park and at 5 different points... volunteers throw colored cornstarch at you". Kris quickly answered back "Wait, you are paying to #1. Run and #2. Have people throw stuff at you?!?! What part of that is fun? ~ No Thank you!"
So, no such luck with Kris, but we still had a good crew. Unfortunately, we underestimated how hard it would be to find people at the race and ended up meeting up with only 7 of our 12 people. Our group did great though. We had fun 'painting' each other before the race and got even messier during the race. Jim was not so much in on the getting messy part and thought he could stay clean. That worked... Until Station #1! Here are some shots of us "Pre-Race" once we painted each other with color.

Post Race was just plain funny. I can't believe how much powder there was Everywhere!
After the race, we decided to head for lunch and ice cream... do you think anyone will let us in their establishment?!?!??? (Thankfully, the answer was Yes!)
