5K Santa Run

Anna and I just got back from the 5K Great Santa Run downtown Vegas. I thought it was retarded at first, but in the end it felt great to get some excercise and had fun doing it. There were thousands of santas that showed up. :banghead:

I don't know if we (Vegas) broke the world record for largest number of santas in one spot, but we'll find out soon.

Either way, like I said, it was fun at for a good cause. Everyone paid to run and proceeds went to Opportunity Village for the needy. :D

Here are some pics. :blink::banghead:

Think I need to pawn some gold and get some paddle tires from the king! (and a tattoo)

What? No DDR logos on the santa suits?

Yeah I didn't even notice the Paddle Tire King place until I looked at the pics. :lol::banghead::blink:

I know I know. I didn't have any DDR swag on this time around. :banghead: Hey it was friggen early. I was just lucky to wake up at 7 AM on a Saturday to go RUN! :banghead::yawn::lol:

I was surprised to see you made the 5K run. I didn't know you were in that kind of shape! Must be nice to be young, skinny, be able to drink a lot of beer and still run the 5K Congrats to both of you!! :grin:

:beercheers: Thanks Terry. I thought it would be much more difficult. Running and endurance has always been one of my more stronger physical abilities. I think the only reason we made it is because we chose not to go out :driver::grin::bawl: Fri night! :flipoff:

Wow Pete and Anna. Good job and for a good cause. But now I feel like a lump because all I did yesterday was:

Built a big fire and Watched:

2 hours of Off Road Racing

1 hour of How it was made

1 hour of Survivor Man in the Sahara. Dude! get a LT car next time.

Lampoons Euro Vacation

South Part: the World Record Poo. They bashing Bono pretty good.

Part of The Santa Clause

Larry the Cable Guy

At this point the 1/2 of gal. of Captain had kick in so there may have been a few random shows in the somewhere. I don't think we went outside except to more wood for the fire.

Haha, yeah you should go back and read my shout yesterday AM right after yours. :undecided:

Anyways, I can't believe I forgot THIS pic. :rockwoot: We were really tempted to join everyone at the bar that were waiting for the race to start which seemed like it took forever. It was like a bunch of "bad santas" (like in the movie, Bad Santa) hanging at the bar. Fuggin classic.

Even though it was like 8:30/9AM, a cold beer actually sounded really good. :laughing: But :pissed: , we were good. :porn:

Running in that damn santa suit was hell. Even though it was fairly light weight, we were sweatin our a$$es off and those stupid pants kept falling down. I finally had to pin mine up. :banghead:

I tell you what women make you do, looks like fun..

haha, only at first. Then I got a bit more into it the more I thought about it and I ended up having a great time. I don't mind the run. It was just the santa outfit that made me say, "whoa wait....hold on now...wtf? :chug: " :chug:
