Only 368 Days to Train (and design a costume)
Did you know that the house used in "A Christmas Story" is now museum dedicated to the movie? The inside-the-house parts were shot on a sound stage of course, but the house itself was recently purchased and redone to make it look exactly like how it was used in the film. Super cool, right? So the other night when I'm looking to see where the house is (because, c'mon, admit it, you want to go), guess what I found? A 5K/10K "A Christmas Story" race. I'm totally going. If it wasn't already sold out for this year, I'd go up Friday.
I mean, seriously. Did you see how awesome it will be? You get to drink rich, chocolatey Ovaltine. You get a stellar leg lamp t-shirt. And you get a medal. Plus you get to be at the Christmas Story house. This is incentive enough.
Who is with me? Linda, want to make a family road trip out of it and meet us? Anyone else? Because no lie, I'm totally doing it.
Mwahahahah! If it weren't a winter race, you know I'd do it with you. That lamp is awesome. Did you know I never remembered seeing this movie until my teens? I'm sure I saw it at a younger age, but... maybe not??
ReplyDeletehow so cool is that!? i love it. just fantastic. it looks like you can volunteer - it look like you'd still get a free shirt. :)
ReplyDeleteMe!! Seth and I had plans to go one year but it fell through, one of my favorite movies of all time!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!!!!!! Where is the house?
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool.
ReplyDeleteNow that is a race worth running in. So sorry it was sold out this year. LOVE that show and pretty sure I'd love that race, I can't wait to read all about it NEXT YEAR.
