Marathon Madness, Pt. 1

OK, we thought we’d seen it all. ‘Mulletville’ at the mile 12 water station. SpongeBob SquarePants at Mile 19. Even a somewhat heavy drag queen dressed as a cheerleader, uh, waving us in at the finish line. But our friend Mindy from up north reports to us about the most disturbing sighting so far:

Mimes On Course:
"Yes mimes. MIMES. With makeup and striped outfits and berets. At mile 14 of the Tampa Marathon standing on course miming the "pulling of a rope" as in pulling the runners along. I really don't know what to say about this."

Yes, we don’t know what to say about that, either.

Mimes?!

Mimes.

Thanks for the nightmares, Mindy!

I'm sure somehow, somewhere, there was a MarathonFoto envelope delivered to someone's door with grainy proofs of Runner 258990 shoving a mime. Select 5x7, 8x10 or Poster Size! (Just $79.99)
