Back in April, I ran a 5k with my cousin and my sister. It was a magical run in which we were pelted with paint and chalk and choked a little bit and felt like hipsters. It was not timed, so I'm allowed to make up a time... an unrealistic realistic time is... 30 minutes! YAY ME!! We were running pretty slow. ;)
Before, in our clean white clothes:
Tip: Wear your number in the front so you can see the pictures they take of you. If you wear it on the back, you end up in no man's land.

After, in our tornado of unicorn throw-up:
Tip: If you want to keep the explosion of color in your clothes, soak them in vinegar THEN wash them. If you wash them, THEN soak them in vinegar like the volunteer told you to, then you will end up with white clothing.
Tip: If you want to get the excess chalk off, roll around in the grass and make grass angels. The chalk has a better chance of being removed from your skin by doing this.
And thus ended the month of April.
excellent, thanks for the advice on the how to keep the color in the clothes thing. I'm doing this in a week, and I definitely would have messed it up. it looks so awesome, I'm super excited now. And I'm inspired to buy white shorts.
