Urban Exploring: Episode 8 – Color Me Rad
THE SYNOPSIS
In this installment of Urban Exploring, The Artoholik's Ike & Guru head to Metlife Stadium to participate in the Color Me RAD 5k race. Prior to arriving at the stadium Ike & Guru get into a mini debate over directions and just so happen the camera was rolling. On arrival, Guru checks in and volunteer for an hour or so while Ike roams the crowd in search of flicks. The duo met back up, murdered the 5k run and then spent time enjoying the party with the rest of the crowd all while documenting the event. What good is an episode of Urban Exploring without food? Ike & Guru hit up local juice bar HLS in Maplewood, NJ to recharge on a healthy note. Enjoy!
THE DISCOVERIES
COLOR ME RAD
Color Me Rad is a 5K that fires off in a blaze of color bombs, color cannons, color mortars, and multi-toned courses that guarantee your outlook will be brighter, your boyfriend will be more affectionate, your boss will finally remember your name, the hair on your head will grow back and the hair on your back will fall out, and your gray outlook will turn green like a spring morning.
Historically, running has only been acceptable when trying to escape the law, personal responsibility, the truth, and grizzly bears.

Color Me RAD 2014 (NYC)
In case you missed it last summer… The Artoholiks took part in the annual Color Me RAD NJ/NY 5K at the METLife Stadium. Okay let me share a secret with you. For those of you who don't know much about the Artoholiks crew, besides our diversity, we’re a dope collective of athletic creative heads who confront every new challenge like artistic dare devils. Any who we love running marathons. Last year we took part in the super kick @## & very nontraditional Color Me RAD NY/NJ 5k at the MetLife Stadium and definitely had a blast. Picture this, starting a 5K in a crispy white T-Shirt or tank top and finishing the run literally showered in a bust of awesome colors. As the folks at COLOR ME RAD said it best, "Historically, running has only been acceptable when trying to escape the law, personal responsibility, the truth, and grizzly bears.” Unfortunate if you missed July 27th festivities to get your fresh white tee color bombed in blue, green, pink, purple, and yellow until every inch of your body: face, shirt, socks, etc is camouflaged. We've got you covered. If you think that was all, you thought WRONG! Imagine also partying at 10AM with DJ Brostradamus after a 5k run. We’re cool peeps so we’ll share a bit with you guys. Watch us and some of our friends get color bombed RAD style & getting our party on. Check the photos below! YES they're free for download and make sure to tag us with @theartoholiks PEACE!
