Portland Color Run 2012

I chose for my first 5K to do a Color Run.  It was fun and low key.  I did end up walking a lot of it but I ran enough to keep my heart rate up.  I also ran to and from the color stations and at the start and finish lines.

 Small victories:

• I finished strong and with lots of color
• Managed to carry ID, Money, Phone and car key without putting anything in a sock or my bra
• I never stopped moving
• Public transportation was an excellent way to get there

Lessons learned:

• Eat a larger breakfast before, cereal and a latte just didn't cut it 
• There is a lot of walking just to get to the starting line
• It would have been more fun with a running/walking buddy

And, now some pictures:
