On Saturday, September 29th Abby participated in the Color Splash run with four of her friends at Fairgrounds Park. She really hadn't done any training for this run except for a 2-mile run on the treadmill earlier in the summer where she just about fainted from exhaustion. But she was excited to do something fun like this with her friends.
Here is Rylie, Avery, Bella, Sydney and Abby right before the start. This was when they were still clean!!
I was able to catch up with Abby at the second color stop. She got coated in some yellow powder here but was looking strong and happy!
Then I headed back down to the finish area so I could see her cross. She was looking really good and ended up passing two women right at the end.
Her clock time was 28:55 for the 5K, pretty amazing especially with no training!
After the race they all had a little color on them...
But it wasn't quite enough for their liking so they went back to the blue color station to roll around in the dust a bit more. Yikes!!
After all the runners/walkers were done, they gathered in a large group and had one final dust explosion happen over their heads.
The girls loved it and it was fun for them to do this race together!
