Badwater 2009

While I'm currently sitting here at work sweltering in this suffocating heat, there are a group of madmen and women voluntarily running in the hottest place on earth right now, with temperatures easily 30-40 degrees more than what we're experiencing here in LA (currently approaching the 90's).

Yup, it's Badwater time again. Best of luck to everyone out there, in particular Jorge, Dean, Shannon, Jamie and Gundy! Y'all are crazy, and I truly mean that in the best way possible.


Last year's winner and all-around nice guy, Jorge Pacheco


3rd overall and 1st female last year, ultra-studette Jamie Donaldson


Dean the machine


Moeben owner Shannon


Our boy Jonathan Gunderson, aka Gundy
