Okay – only part of the town but still it was fun. At the insistence of the Longhair and her Apprentice I acquiesced to take part in the Color Run this morning.
I just want to put it out there – the Apprentice Longhair and her mates failed to get the last section of the message – i.e Color RUN. I even came out of retirement and jogged a bit after vowing to never run again following my stint in the ‘SA of NDF’. The Longhair and I finished the 5 kilometre course in a credible 45 minutes which included lots of laughter, chats with random people and returning to the various Color Run stations for more photo ops.
Note to the wise: Use a Go-Pro and make sure your camera is well sealed.
