i challenge those guys to wear those (thick) over-sized costumes on a run here in Singapore ! lol
the humidity’s gonna get them for sure !
my personal fave are the prisoners
simply bcos they were chained together … and so have to do everything together (assuming they were chained together thru out the run)
all have to run together, drink together, pee together …
if one had cramps, the others also affected
if one dun feel like running, the other 2 can carry him lol
