Run or Dye

So we did the "Buffalo" (Actually in Holland, NY) Run or Dye.  One of the Color Run clones.

Comparison:
Color Run was downtown Rochester city streets.

This Run or Dye was starting on a Nascar track(though it seemed rather small for that), then off doing some zig zags next to the track, then off into the woods where it was basically trails and mud.  Then through a junkyard, more zigzags next to the track and back onto the track to finish.  Interesting.

It was fun though.  The usual "awww"'s constantly as MaKenzie was running.  I continue to be amazed at her skills.  She can run quite well, and even in the woods where there were roots sticking up all over, I was cringing, but she ran right over them without a problem!

During the Color Run she ran just about the entire time.  This time she was asking for me to carry her maybe half the time off an on.  She does seem to enjoy being carried while I run!  And we got a faster time!

Oh and it was WICKED humid for Run or Dye.  I was completely drenched in sweat.

As in the Color Run Kenzie went through the color stations on her own and waited for color and went and got more herself.  Though, at the color run, she's scrape some off the concrete after the end of the color station, this time it was in the woods and they had marked the trail with powder, so she was frequently trying to pick up purple color from the muddy woods which didn't work quite as well!

Kenzie also picked up some awesome purple hair at the first station, I loved it.

And she was acting all tired towards the end and had me carrying her and she started asking a bit for water and Mommy and so I was running while carrying her, but I guess she was just thirsty.  As soon as she got a bottle of water, then she was off trying to run down the track instead of going up the stairs to get to Mommy!


So in all?  It was a hot sticky mess, but it was awesome because Kenzie was great and those are pretty much my favorite times!  (:  LOVE HER!
