Color Run in Ypsilanti

The Color Run East Michigan took place in Ypsi this morning! 15,000 people lined up along Cross St. between Riverside and Frog Island parks for the start. (For reference, Ypsilanti's population is about 19,500!) The weather was a little cool, but we warmed up after running the first mile or so.

That's a lot of people.

It was a lot of fun; I can't imagine a better start to the weekend! And in a couple days, I should be able to wash all this colored powder out of my hair.

Runners and spectators gathered in Riverside Park after the run for music, and an amazing amount of color was in the air:
