I'm filling in for Lesley today on the Weekly Twitter Wrap, as she is busy in NYC preparing for the Marathon, which she is working at. More to come from her later on some behind-the-scenes action from one of the best marathons in the world. For now, here's this weeks Twitter highlights. Check out what your favorite female athletes are doing for Halloween...

 

Candace Parker and her husband (Shelden Williams) have a pumpkin carving contest and post the pics on Twitter:

Shelden's pumpkin:

Candace's pumpkin (front and back!):

Candace's Pumpkin

...according to Shelden (@sheldenwiliams), he won:

she is a sore loser she is mad cuz people can tell what mine is and have to squint in 1 eye and and close the other to see what hers is

Candace's retort (@Candace_Parker):

i need sympathy i cut my finger carving the pumpkin and then we dnt hav any band-aids at the hosue so i got a papertowel round my finger!

He went the easy route and played it safe! i on the other hand wrote words and drew a meannn monster! :) plus the lightin was bad n da pic!

WTS member Danica (@chicrunner) made this costume all by herself....now, how will she get through doors?
