  Monday Morning Mirth  

Because, in general you don't get the chance to see
25,000+ almost Nakid Guys running their tutu's off, I bring you some
Hunks from RaceDay: Chicago Marathon 2004...


...as seen from my camera position at the corner of Fullerton and Canon Dr, Mile 6; a guy in a Leopard Print Thong & BowTie combo has just passed but I wasn't fast enough on the draw. OMG! ChicKnits predicted Animal Prints were BIG for Fall 2004 and Boy Howdy, were they ever! I got the above shot after I recovered my senses...


ChicKnits close personal friend, Clark Kent,
decides to run in full Big & Tall splendor...

The Chicago Marathon is a Global Event and attracts celebrities of all kinds: the San Diego Chicken makes a special Guest Run...

Last but not least, my favorite guy
of the Chicago Marathon 2004,
a Guy Named RAY...
Right on Ray~!

DISCLAIMER: it's been 23 days of straight clock-punching with/no days off for this chiquita, so, I'm a little punchy2!

We go set up our camera position at 4am and encountered the MAGIC that is the Wee Hours'O'theMorning along the LakeFront...
