 Last week was the Inaugural Minions 5k at Universal Studios Hollywood. Originally only supposed to take place on Saturday, the event was so popular that they had to actually do two 5k's, one on Saturday and one on Sunday. We were invited out to cover the event early Saturday morning (good thing I was still on Orlando time). As somebody who's run over 40 half-marathons and 6 marathons, it was odd for me to be on this side of the race, but equally as fun!! Written by Gregg Condon Welcome to Universal Studios Hollywood!!  Never have seen the sun rising on the sign, it was kind of cool.  The racers getting ready, there were probably about 6-7 "waves" of runners. They did an amazing job making sure the course wouldn't be overcrowded.  Run that way!!   Even the Minions were excited to race  And of course, they were out at the start    Check out some highlights of the race start and finish. We definitely did more video than pics. Pika, Pika  The atmosphere at the finish was amazing   A look at the medal, very nice. And it's animated, you can spin it (totally should have done a .gif).  This was just the first race, Universal will be holding a Jurassic themed race in November, we'll definitely be running/covering that one as well. As soon as details are released we will for sure be sharing them. Related Videos:
