you guys will probably laugh at me, but that's okay.

i'm signed up for the hollywood half marathon in april. i've been brainstorming for a costume to wear (they encourage you to dress up as a celeb), and at first was going to wuss out and do a disney costume (easy).  then someone suggested audrey hepburn in "breakfast at tiffany's."  that would be so simple - hair up, tiara, black running skirt & top, and elbow-length gloves/arm warmers.  

but i kind of want other ideas to kick around too.  got any?

yes, i am super cheesetastic and think it's fun to do the silly stuff Smile

  • snooki?! 

    yeah, it's debatable whether she's a legitimate celebrity, but the costume would be fun(ny) :)

  • Hey! I am doing the Hollywood 1/2 too! Smile 

     I think your idea is cute! Have you tried running with a tiara on? That would be the only thing that I think would bug me after a few miles.

  • Marilyn Monroe?  Blonde wig, white running tank and running skirt?

    Going with the running theme, a Forrest Gump costume would be hilarious.  Bubba Gump Shrimp hat, yellow smiley face t-shirt, et cetera.

    I ran 13.1 with one on last weekend and it really wasnt bad at all.

    LOL! Yeah. I am sure if it's placed right, right size, etc. it would not be bad. I have not tried and not sure if some of the costume stuff would bug me, so get worried about how I would feel a few miles in.
