So, I've found my niche. It's not the fastest runner. It's not the age group finisher. It's that runner in the costume - tonight I won the female 'Santa-est' in part of my Santa Antonio 5k get up from last weekend at the Jingle Bell Run.
We meet at a buddy's house, run to designated houses, shout/sing carols at them until they make us stop by giving us libations and chow. Then repeat. But I cheated and just ran to the first house, sang/shouted/ate/drank and headed back - I can't keep up a speedy pace with some of those pros. I didn't want to be a lost running Santa in the dark.
And then I won the costume contest (female) and was awarded a nice bottle of prosecco.
Awesome. And we ate and drank some more and slaughtered the lyrics to carols. That's what the holidays are about. Next up - holiday lights running tour tomorrow night.
In the meantime, while I was rocking my Santa suit, Simba apparently napped hard on my laptop - resetting my supersmart home thermostat to 50 degrees (really) and making the type on this page really REALLY small. Dangit.

You do seem to win all the costume contests! I'm sure this one was more comfortable than the jellyfish. Congrats!
