Nude Running, Anyone?

On September 15, 2007, over a hundred runners wore their running shoes (and left all other apparel behind) to join the annual Patxi Ros nude 5,000 meter race at La Salvaje beach, near Sopelana, Spain. The race was started way back in 1999 when Patxi Ros, a naturist and sportsman, decided to combine his two favourite pastimes in a public event.

For those who intend to join this race next year (nope, not me!), you better start toning your gluteus maximus…and all other muscles for that matter!

    Jaymie,
    They are not completely nude. If you’ll notice some are wearing running shoes and hats.

    Brent, I guess some guys felt too naked without their shoes on.

    Rick, aaaaw, too bad for you!

    Meeya, hahahaha! Funny!

    E-rod, you mean you didn’t sign up? I thought you were one of those guys with the bandana!
