5k Halloween costume suggestions needed!

[northstar]

So...a colleague and I are running a 5K on the 27th, and we are going to run in costume. Problem is, I can't think of anything! I googled a few ideas and I love the "punny" ones, but too often, I need to carry something along.

Any brilliant ideas? I'm debating going as a "deviled egg." All white with a yellow blob on my belly, then devil horns.

I don't know! Help!!

Hey Northstar, is that the Monster Dash? We have one here too and I was thinking of doing the canine one. Then I would need 2 costumes though so add thoughts for both. Maybe green eggs and ham??

Hi there,

My brother is doing the 1/2 mary in the Monster Dash that day...I am doing the Grey Ghost in Anoka. A coworker of mine has been working toward doing her first 5k and I promised her I'd run it with her. (Before I knew my bro was doing MD!)

How about "not a happy camper"? Basically that involves dressing like a kid at camp (cargo shorts and camp t-shirt or something similar) and doing things like putting spots of calamine lotion in various places (bug bites/poison ivy), bandaids everywhere, making a couple burn marks on the t-shirt like you had an accident with a campfire, maybe some fake spider webs/spiders/bugs/leaves in your hair, a rubber snake around your ankle and those sorts of things.

I had a friend with a very obscene sense of humor a number of years ago. One of her favorite costumes was a belt with a dildo and a potato attached to it. She was a "Dictator". I don't suggest this in a family run, though.

I dunno, I'd run a lot faster if there was someone behind me wearing that costume

Since you will be running together you could be Thing One and Thing Two from Dr. Suess

You could wear a red sweatshirt and attach a round white circle with the wording thing one and thing two and get blue hair wigs

Best I remember Thing 1 and thing 2 ran through the house causing havoc.
