Thai Color Run - Happiest Run on The Planet

I don't usually register for such short run, 3 km or 5 km, but I made an exception for The Color Run. According to their website it is a paint race, hosting more than 300 events in 50+ countries in 2014. Coincidentally, Thai Color Run was just around the corner during my trip to Bangkok. I was already late for the normal fee, but registered anyway THB 900. Sob sob.. quite expensive for such a short run. Never mind just for the experience, running in a foreign country.

But my feet was quite sore after 3 days wandering in Hua Hin, the southern Thailand. My run was on 1st November 2015. Now I thank God for it was just for a short run. 

I can't really remember the order of the color threw at me, I think start with purple, orange,  yellow, blue, green.

The run is a bit different than what I used to. This is more like fun run, you can just walk or crawl if you wish. The running is by section, I guess maybe the route in Jatujak not allow all to run to the finish line together. During the run you have to stop and wait at certain sections so the runner before you can finish the route before you run that route. I mean the sections were overlap. The park wasn't close for the color run purpose, you can see some others jog and cycling in the park. 

Anyway, let's just see the pics post, shall we?
