I ran this morning's 5k as a gym-class nerd (I couldn't find a good Artie-style shirt, so I went as something generic) complete with a "Shakespeare is my Homeboy" tshirt, little red 70's style track shorts, knee-length athletic socks w/ blue stripes around the top, black-framed glasses w/ tape wrapped around the nosepiece, and a sweatband round my head. It ended up being cute and pretty outrageous.
I was the only one running dressed in a costume. And who won the costume contest?
not me. A girl with little Halloween antennas. That was all her costume.
I feel cheated.
