IN PICTURES: ANNUAL PKS PTA RUN IS A BLAST  — OF COLOR

Runners and walkers took off from the starting line at Coral Shores High School on Feb. 7. They were full of color and accomplishment by the time they reached the finish. The ninth annual Plantation Key School PTA Color Run returned, as hundreds of participants of all ages ran and walked the Old Highway course. A signature part of the event is instructors and staff wielding bottles of colored powder to douse participants en route to the finish line.
