I was thinking about it after a friend posted in on fb. Could probably be talked into it. ;)

Looks like it could be a fun party- but is it really a race?

I was just curious. Apparently it's not timed or anything so it's just a fun event.

My best friend did the colour run - sorry "Color Run" in Chicago a few weeks ago - same idea, different company. She said they had a fabulous time - but no, not a race.
