Vox Day In A Tutu?

I am pretty sure I am not doing anybody any favors by linking to this.

…it is what Spacebunny has promised she will make me do if we are able to hit her $5k for 5k target for research for the Crohn’s MAP vaccine as part of the Color Run in which we are participating next month…

I tried to point out that running a 5k is something I have done precisely once in my life, and that perhaps a 100-meter sprint for charity might be more in order, but I was outvoted as my treacherous spawn sided with her. Then Spacebunny promised that if the $5k for 5k was raised, both of us would not only run the race, but do so in tutus as well. And that she would post the pictures on Twitter. And that I would post them here.

I’m really not seeing how that sweetened the deal…

So, if you are either a) interested in supporting scientific research that may bring an end to the ongoing torture that is Crohn’s Disease or b) looking to have a pretty good laugh at my expense, you can do so by supporting Spacebunny’s Color Run Page at Justgiving. I have spoken with several members of the research team, it is a lean and efficient organization, and the funds will not be wasted.

What can you say to this? I’d think if he wins he should insist on being referred to as Xir Vox Day on the winner’s platform, but I suppose as a sprinter he is probably more focused on simple survival through the ordeal.

A good investment in a very possible cure though. Hard to believe running in a tutu could be God’s work, but there it is.
