Chiditarod Diaries: Part Four

My legs hurt. My head hurts. My pants are spattered with fake blood (damn zombies). But I did the 2009 Chiditarod.

Here's the video:


And here's a little bonus feature for you all:


Don't forget to check out parts one, two and three of the preparation videos.

Saddest/best part?

"No one knows who Simon LeBon" is.

Hey, It's Mr.Rogers/The Mad Hatter. I sent your Youtube videos to the team, and we're all glad you ran this year; it looks like you had some fun.

Post-slime is the best type of Ghostbuster.

Hmmm. A Ghostbuster team ...

fun series! i encourage you to continue pursuing video over your singing - though i do give you an a+ for enthusiasm ;)

actually you might make a good karaoke singer

My singing is top-notch. It's like angels crapping on golden cymbals. Otis Redding rises from the grave to shed a single zombie tear of jealousy every time I sing. When I sing, women swoon and are dragged off by a second round of women, who then swoon in turn.

And I am a blast at karaoke.
