Costume Run

So Saturday was a costume run.  In order to raise money, people did the 6-mile recovery run in costume.  Not everyone was in costume, for example, me.  Number one, I completely forgot about it but mainly, thanks to the generosity and support of my friends I had already surpassed my fundraising goal - by a lot.  Just another reason to thank you all even more for your donations.  I've never been a costume person - I don't even dress up on Halloween - I guess it's just the curmudgeon in me.  Still, it was a very fun run and some of the costumes were amazing.  One of the members in my pace group, Tyrell, wore a marching band uniform, complete with plumed hat and it was hot out.  I don't know how he did it.  I forgot my video camera so did not get any film of the runners in their costums but I grabbed my phone at the end and snapped a few quick pictures.  Unfortunately, Tyrell left before I could get a picture of him.  But here are a few - my favorite is my friend Selma, rocking her Tina Turner look.

Enjoy.  And please visit my AIDS Marathon Donation Page.  I'm only $45 from $7,000!  How cool is that? 

Next week - 14 miles!!
