Monday, August 21, 2006Angeles Crest 100 Training Run - Baden-Powell
The Beginning
The EndPhoto is of Ken, Jean and me.
Had a great training run this past Sunday. Must have done around 31 miles. Ran out of water. Got lost. Got found and lost again. Threw up. Long story. Ken and I finally made it out...alive, and none-too-worse-for-wear.
A group of Swiss tourists took this photo and a few more. They were amazed at my 40 year old Volkswagen and my FiveFingers shoes.
Best Regards, Barefoot Ted
PS. A big "thank you" to Hal Winton for what he does for all of us involved in the Angeles Crest 100.

Hey Ted
It was great meeting you and your friends on San Gabriel Mountains! Just loved your 66' Beetle and were very fascinated about your FiveFingers.
Best regards from the Lake Zurich Area, Switzerland.
On behalf of Fredy, Lucas and myself...
...hope to see you, soon again!
