1. Runners and walkers start out from Elitch Gardens in
the 2nd Annual Denver Gorilla Run. The Denver Gorilla Run is a
charity fun run with a difference. Everyone who takes part
wears a full gorilla costume - from fluffy head to furry toe -
and helps raise funds (at $150 per entry fee) for the Mountain
Gorilla Conservation Fund, the international charity working to
save the world's last remaining mountain gorillas.

actually run pretty fast. On the left is Josh Spiker, training
