(My black cat, although appropriate to
the outfit, will stay home on race day)
There’s some good news and some bad news about Sunday’s Half Ironman. The good news is that it’s supposed to be pretty cool. That will be good because, well, look what I’ll be running in! The bad news is that it’s supposed to rain. That costume will get heavy if it gets soaked! We’ll see what the race brings!
Check back on Sunday evening to see what happened! If I don’t have time for a full post, I’ll at least post some fun photos to tide you over! Wish Pharmie and I luck!
Those are certainly some good-looking cats! Have a great race...
ReplyDeleteWhat's amazing is that in 3 minutes your cat went from being striped to all black. Good luck on Sunday.
ReplyDeleteROFL! I was thinking the same thim as maggs...
ReplyDeleteGood luck this weekend! Can't wait to read the follow-up report!
Hope it doesn't rain on you! Have a great race and I can't wait to read about it :)
ReplyDeleteSo what did you have to do to get that cat to go back arched, tail up?
ReplyDeleteIt adds to the effect
I can hardly wait for the report. I hope you get pictures of others faces as they get passed by death.
ReplyDeleteSteve
ReplyDeleteGo to Gander Mountain or some other camping store and get the waterproofing spray that is used for tents and other nylon products. It will make that suit rainproof for about 10 bucks.
Good Luck. I wish you were going to be at IMWI so I could write on you.
I can't wait to hear this report.
The change in accessory cat in the photos is hilarious!
ReplyDeleteYou should yell "BOO!" to everyone you pass. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteDude, that's seriously scary!!!
ReplyDeleteit's sad when I look forward to updates from your blog. that's my weekend
ReplyDeleteAre you going to be biking with that cat attached to your leg? Cause that takes talent.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the weather and I hope you both have a great race!
ReplyDeleteThat? IS FREAKING AWESOME. I love it. Can't wait to read the recap. :)
ReplyDeleteYou have to take the black cat on a lead for the run! :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck this weekend. Hopefully the weather cooperates.. Nobody likes a wet grim reaper running around.
ReplyDeleteNow, this is going to be good. Can't wait to hear about it.
ReplyDeleteI thought maybe you spray painted the cat black...that would have been cool..:-D

ReplyDeleteBahahaha I cannot wait to see race pics!
ReplyDeleteI SOOOOO wish I could see this in person.... :)
ReplyDeleteOK, I'm totally crying in the corner of my office. That's scary! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteGood luck on Sunday Grim! I can't wait to see some pictures of people being passed by the Grim Reaper! Just be careful when you swing that sickle... ouch!
ReplyDeleteNo way you could get the "bowl full of sunshine" shorts on top of the costume, huh?
ReplyDeleteGood luck on Sunday. Can't wait to see the pics.
Cannot WAIT for this race report, Steve! and neat trick -- turning the cat black ;)
ReplyDeleteYeah - the black cat totally adds to the outfit, are you sure you can't carry him/her with you?
ReplyDeletei cannot wait for this race report... good luck!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck to both of you guys!
ReplyDeleteHow much did you pay your cat to pose perfectly? Did s/he go to scary cat modeling school or something? Clearly, that cat's got talent.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear how it goes. GOOD LUCK!!
ReplyDeleteThat would scare the crap out of me!

ReplyDeleteReason #21445 why body glide should come in an aerosol can
ReplyDeleteGo find some Scotchguard waterproofing spray by 3M in the laundry aisle of the grocery and spray that costume down if it is going to rain!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the pictures.
Hahahaha! That is truly priceless! Best of luck to both you and Pharmie! Can't wait to read all about it . . .
ReplyDeleteI love the way you made the cat "transform" too :-)
ReplyDeleteSteve!
ReplyDeleteThis is ridiculous. Jessie H. and I are crying because we're laughing so hard. You're ridiculous.
