This year they added in a new zone: the Shine zone; hence this years theme 'We Shine'. Instead of a colour zone like purple, yellow or blue we were supposed to be a glitter zone. Basically the colour was a metallic silver, like the unicorn blood in Harry Potter. Unfortunately the glitter could only be seen in sunlight like Edward Cullen and it'd already been raining for most of the day. For some miraculous reason it stopped raining for majority of the run which was great because we had no intentions of chucking gooey blobs at people.
Our colour powder was so light it got messy real fast. It was in our face, in our eyes, in our ears. Basically at the end of the day I had silver snot. If you think it sounds cool, wait till it comes out of your nose. We were told to squirt below nipple level but with that powder it very quickly went into people's faces and even stayed in the air for very long. I mean look:
2 Seconds later the powder just fills the air. To be honest it was really bad, at one point I was scared my eyes turned silver but I had SSOOO much fun. The people running through were so energetic and excited and I really loved colouring people's hair silver. There were all these adorable kids running through and so many families.
The next time though I'll probably run it. I don't think I can survive inhaling powder through all the holes in my face for 3 hours again. Here's a photo of us tin men cleaning up. That person at the end, yea she's a tin man #tinforthewin
