Color Run 2013

Today was the Baltimore Color Run. I thought it would be fun to run (or walk!) as a family. Everyone was on board except Tru. He was a little disturbed when he learned that people "throw" color at you as you run. He said he did not want anyone throwing things at him. Eventually I took him out on the deck and threw some flour at him. Then he got the idea. We mentioned the run to Tru's prosthetists and they decided to form a team. We were happy to be a part of Team Dankmeyer today!

Here we are in our nice clean, white shirts.

There were three amputees on our team. Here are Tru, his friend Eric and Mr. Steve. We just met Mr. Steve today. He has only had his prosthetic leg for two months and braved the Color Run with us today. He finished strong and we were honored to cross the finish line with him. Way to go Mr. Steve!!

And..... After!

This is Mrs. Angie who takes great care of Tru! Thank you Mrs. Angie for running/walking with us the whole time!!

This little guy shocked me with how much running he did. He would announce, "Running!" And off we went. Dallas and Lin-Ley ran the entire route and met us at the finish line.
