Official Monster Dash Photos

In an attempt to get your vote, here are some fun, official photos from the Monster Dash 5K that I ran 10 days ago.

Here’s the group that won best “family costume.” Yes, their Burly baby stroller was covered up as “The Mystery Machine.” How sweet is this:

Here’s Cruella de Vil, along with her Dalmatian children:

I was out cheering before they had finished, and the Dalmatians stopped to dance with me in front of the boom box as Cruella laughed and took photos. It was pretty sweet.

Here’s the guy who came in second in the “individual male” costume contest. He was dressed to the nines:

And this... well... this is nuts. These 2 guys ran the HALF MARATHON as the Jamaican Bobsled Team:

Here I am, dressed as “Steve Reap-fontaine,” just before the start of the race:

This next shot is CREEPY, and I love it! Remember in my race report, I had a photo of a few boys that lined up right in front of me just before the start of the race? Here’s a shot from beyond the starting line, and it looks like Dracula and I are going to steal these boy’s souls. Look at the middle boy - I think he just shat himself:

Just after the start. I have a bit of a camel toe...

Rounding the final hill, heading into the finish, STILL with that camel toe:

Hitting the line:

Initially, they had posted that I had finished 3rd, behind a woman and an nameless, ageless, sexless, hermaphrodite:

But now they’ve updated it, and I came in 2nd behind a young man:

Again, if you didn’t see my previous post, please go here to vote for Steve in a Speedo as “Best Endurance Blog of 2008:” http://www.everymantri.com/everyman_triathlon/best-sport-endurance-blog.html

I’ll be back with fun stuff for the next 11 days in an effort to get your vote! AND I’m working up something big for this Saturday. If it goes through as planned, it should be a pretty funny day. Yep, it’s a race in a NEW COSTUME! You won’t want to miss it!
