What attracted me the most about running the color run was all the colors. For each distance you run there were people throwing a specific color on you. And when you’ve reached the last stop, they throw all the colors on you. And that’s what kept me motivated throughout the run.

Going with my sisters made the whole experience even better. We just had fun and encouraged each other. When we first started running, we made sure to stick together. We then realised that it was impossible since we all were differently trained. We decided to run as fast as we could and to wait for each other at the end line.

Running a marathon is not supposed to be like a competition with others. Some people were power walking and others were running. The point is to have fun and to keep your body healthy and in motion. It’s a competition between you and yourself.
