The following are some of Gary’s photos from the
Charities Challenge “Free To Run 5K” yesterday. That’s why I love these events - the president of the organization is running around with his little digital camera, shooting photos of everyone! When does that happen?!
Everyone waving at the start (no need to point me out):
Ready, set, go:
Hitting the finish line, stopping my watch:
As I mentioned in my last post, Gary had me announce the finishers for a while. Part way through, he told me to pose for a photo. This is the best pose I could come up with. Sorry it sucks so hard:
People haven’t posed like that since the 70s...
This woman brought someone to run the race from Switzerland, and here I am announcing him as he comes to the line:
Getting ready to go, when Gary asked me to say a few words:
Here are the official results:
The first female was on my tail - just 20 seconds back
- 2nd in age group
- 2nd personal fastest 5KSo check out the last post for my race report if you missed it. And thanks Gary for all the great photos, and for a fun race!
(And now that’s 5 out of the last 6 posts that contain the “bowl full of sunshine!” Sweet.)
The outfit really scares me, but the LSU colors rock.
ReplyDeletegirls beat me all the time!
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed borderline scandalous. I am glad to see you have gotten more brazen and no longer wear the spandex shorts underneath :-)
ReplyDeleteIs that old lady in the back checkin our your hot ass or what?
ReplyDeleteCONGRATS homie!
hey good job! i did notice that in the first photo where you are announcing the finishers...i thought wow steve has got some really skinny arms, look how loose that livestrong bracelet is on his wrist! then in the next photo i see that it was just your headband. i guess your wrists arent as dainty as they appeared!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. Still love the shorts.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your race!!!!!!
ReplyDeletePlease tell me you beat Mr. Studly No-shirt with the red reflective shoes!!!
ReplyDeleteThe only thing that would have been better for you photo is if the microphone would have been SUPER SKINNY and white. LOL!
Oh, Steve. I think you missed your *calling.* You look like a natural.
ReplyDeleteLove the pics! The pose was too much it looks like you were singing. "Staying Alive" popped in my head for some reason.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on another zippy race! And what an honor to be able to announce after...seems like you managed to stay on your best behavior, too :). What a beautiful venue for a race.
ReplyDeleteP.S. LOVE the 4th of July cards.
I was thinking of Staying Alive too!
ReplyDeleteGreat pics.Even if they do include those shorts
ReplyDeleteI watched Juno the other day and your outfit reminded me of it right away. Great photos and it sounds like a really fun day!
ReplyDeleteYour outfit kills me! Terrific job on the race. You are super fast!
ReplyDeleteYou are a total ROCK STAR!!!! Love it!
ReplyDeleteWho needs a fancy pose when you have those shorts?
ReplyDeleteI love that you have fun with this sport AND you are fast! You don't usually get both from one person.
ReplyDeleteAh, geez, when did you add the yellow head band and tube socks?! As if it wasn't bad enough before...
ReplyDeleteDamn you! I've been saying "bowl full of sunshine" for about a week now! That's not so bad all by itself, but that pixelated image of you always seems to pop into my head at the same time. I'm about ready to stick a screwdriver in my ear just so I can end the torture.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog! I'm loving the yellow shorts, total "sunshine"!!! Awesome job with the race!

ReplyDeleteMan, the sunshine emitting from your shorts is blinding. (that was an awkward sentence.)
ReplyDeleteJust found your blog.... very funny and uplifting.
ReplyDeleteYou are super fast. I think it is time to lay out in the yellow shorts so your thighs lose that pasty whiteness, LMAO.
ReplyDeletehow does your penis not fall out of your shorts?
ReplyDeleteOk, how many bowls of sunshine do u really have? A drawerful?
ReplyDeleteAnd....what's up with the tube socks? Man..that does take me WAY back in time...I'd laf at u, but since u're smoking hot on the run, I'd be foolish to.
Well written article.
