*jeanne* forwarded me a series of race photos that she dug up in her preparations for the Goofy Challenge, and it got me thinking about a costume all over again.Except maybe this is not a costume?
I'd be looking for something a little easier to run in than a full-length dress, with annoying things (what are those white parts called?) around the hips and shoulders.
The theme of the 5K for 2006 is "Chicken Little". Maybe I just need a dead rubber chicken to carry.
Of course, even in a full-length blue dress, I still will never get a race photo where I actually have both feet off the ground, like this person has.

i think that person is a little light in the loafers (running shoes)? are you sure this wasn't taken at the gay and lesbian day?
Did he lose a bet? That material has got to chafe.
That's is pricesless :)..can u say Kodak Moment??
Yowzers! Give me spandex anyday... not that fru-fru material... That qualifies as a tripping hazard (of course this comes from the world clutsiest gal...:) How about some Mickey ears???
The newest issue fo Runner'sWorld has an entire article on costumed-runners. It was a good read...they are a bit different.
Perhaps, since chicken little was worried about the sky falling, you could strap a piece of the sky (cloud? sun?) to a hat and wear that for the 5K.
You guys don't seem to understand that a fat 48-year-old lady running as Tinkerbell might get a few laughs that are not laughing WITH me but laughing AT me.
I'm trying to think up something a little less humiliating. :-)
Then again, maybe Oldman will let me borrow his Tinkerbell-green race singlet like in his photo. :-)
I think he's obviously LIVING HIS DREAM.
;-)
Tinker bell sounds good but why not just go as Oldman himself?
GO CINDERFELLA GO!!!
Heh if this fat ole lady can dress as Pink Barbie Fairytopia, a skinner and younger Nancy can definitely go as Tinkerbell.
My costume was also dubbed as "Pinkerbell"...lol. I've already decided I will wear hopefully a skinnier version in July 2007 for our kids race - they want more mascots for the race.
