History Made In Footrace

Not to pooh-pooh that other race that went on this weekend and the American citizen who won it, but let's talk about some real news. The Denver Gorilla Run set a record on Saturday: Most people dressed as gorillas in one location -- 1,061. The run is a 5.6K starting at the Wynkoop Brewery in downtown Denver, and I'll say from experience that it can be a little creepy being in the middle of that pack when the race starts, and hundreds of gorillas are chasing three cyclists in full banana costumes, making all kinds of noises our simian ancestors made. Anyway, the fastest runner finished in 22 minutes.
