It is a good time no matter what shape you are in. Costumes are a must. My son cleans up every year and added another steel helmet (trophy for those who place well) to the collection. Last year he went as Speed Racer complete with <A href="http://www.amazon.com/Mattel-M4211-Speed-Racer-Helmet/dp/B000W5TLMQ">helmet</A> and still came out on top for his age and 3rd overall for the day (out of 7000+ mostly out of shape 20-30somethings). His 2 friends ran as <A href="http://www.wholesalehalloweencostumes.com/adult-costumes/mens-costumes/cartoon/4096RI-adult-gumby-costume.html?code=googlewhc&CAWELAID=907681322&cagpspn=pla&gclid=COuQttGDj64CFYmK4AodjRV6eQ">Gumby</A> and a gorilla. Those costumes were so trashed afterward but they were so funny and quite the hit.
This is what has finally gotten me off the coach and attempting to get back into some kind of decent shape. So looking forward to this.
Yeah I'd never heard of this but it sounds totally awesome. Signing up to be a zombie seems like the best deal.
