A Run with My Number One

Friday night on October 30th, my wife and I did our first 5K together and it was completely planned by her. She surprised me because I really like to run and I really like go to outrageous dances. This was a combination of both. We had probably one of the best times we ever had in Nashville at night. The music was amazing and CRAZY people were going insane for all the items they were giving away.  

This was the first person we noticed had an awesome costume for Halloween. Kelsie was holding a knife and fulfilled the dream of all people of who are afraid of clowns.

The registration process that we went through gave a shirt and a front registration tag. Afterwards we joined all the people for a pre-run dance. 

The stage was surrounded by huge speakers and the DJ was playing personally mixed music that kept everyone jumping. During the drops (when they hit the crowd with a large amount of bass) they would throw glow sticks, colored glow powder, glow hair, gloves, and other items that lit up. It was intense because people would constantly freak out over every throw. The glow powder was the most exciting part because it was this very fine almost liquid dust that people would hold on to until we were told to throw it. We would get a countdown and then everyone spun the powder around and it covered us all. Every time we were near a blacklight it would then glow. By the end of the night, we looked like this:

The run for us was more like a walk because we are just not used to running....aka out of shape. However, the walking, dancing, jumping, and excitement got us both exhausted. I would like to thank Kelsie again for always planning the best dates. Here are some more pictures:

As you can tell we got really dusty but we looked AWESOME. It was a fantastic feeling to be surrounded by other disco balls that were enjoying it as much as we were and I think it would be a great experience for everyone. We loved it and will keep our eyes out for more in the future.
