Local teachers wielding paint bottles eagerly awaited racers on the Old Highway on Feb. 8. The eighth annual Plantation Key School PTA Family Color Run saw runners and walkers, young and old, take off from Coral Shores High School for a 5k race. Wearing shirts and headbands reading “Sorry: Not Really,” educators situated up the road from the start and finish line greeted race participants with blasts of colored paint. Race participants received a shower courtesy of Islamorada Fire Rescue, as well as a pancake breakfast thanks to Coastal Realty of the Florida Keys.
