Color Manila Run 2 on January 5

Sometimes we just put too much pressure on ourselves to be faster at every race. I am sooo guilty of this! But with the trend of non-timed fun runs, we can rediscover the joy of sharing the running experience with friends.

After several successful color runs in other Philippine cities, we’re getting a repeat performance in Manila. Get ready to get happy and colorfully dirty on January 5, 2014 for Color Manila Run 2!

Color Manila Run 2 on January 5, 2014 at Bonifacio Global City

I started this year with the Color Manila Run (check out my previous blog post) and while my competitive self emerged, I really enjoyed the no-pressure, all-fun atmosphere at the fun run. It brought out the little kid in me trying alternately to get hit by or to dodge colored powder bursts from the stations.

I’m always clean and composed at races. This was the exception.
