TEAM HOLLYWOOD!

Oh, where to begin! This last weekend a group of us gals headed to Cedar to run a 31 mile relay race...it was a blast! We went down Friday and had some great fun. Thanks to Darla and her off road driving skills, I laughed until my stomach hurt so bad I couldn't laugh anymore. Then, of course, we didn't go to bed until way late and had to be up super early to make it to the race the next morning...good times!! :)
Well, lets start with our prerace photo shoots. Elvis...Marci
Michael Jackson...Darla

Madonna...Me

Dolly Parton...Tiff

Marlynn Monroe...Amber
Yes, we really did dress and run like this. We totally won the prize for best costume. At the first of the race we got some crazy looks, but we had so much fun you know other teams wished they would have looked as crazy as we did. We were there to have fun and that is what we did!

It was super windy (and up hill) so I had to shed my wig when I was running. The wind was making it hard to keep on. I got so hot that I wished I could have shed my fish net tights, but they had to stay. I didn't mind the cone bra at all! :) I might have to wear that another time running...ha ha!


Besides winning the Best Costume award, we did awesome in the race too. All the girls did great! Marci was steller on her HUGE hills, and Darla finished the race running another HUGE hill..good job! We finished in 5th place out of the all girls teams and 16th place over all. We finished the 31 mile race in 4 hrs. 45 min....not to bad.
The race ended pretty exciting! If you notice in the picture Michael Jackson and Madonna are sprinting to the finish line to pass one final runner. We will just leave that story at that, right team Hollywood?! :)

Here is our final photo shoot. We were all still put together when we finished. Dolly still had her ladies, Madonna's points where still pointy, Elvis still had his chest hair, Michael Jackson still had his moves, and Marlynn Monroe was still a hottie! :)

Thanks girls for such a fun race and weekend...lets do it again next year!
