Tuna Cup Run 2007!

Here are some long overdue photos of the Tuna Cup Run 2007. It ended up that Josh scheduled himself to run on the hottest day of the summer--it was really close to 100 degrees and very humid. Because of that, he started really early (before it got to the heat of the day!) AND he wore a Speedo. :o) He actually had to wear the Speedo to make a bit of extra money from a few friends who said they would pledge more than double if he would run with a blue Speedo on with "I bleed Dodger Blue" written on his back. I think the chaffing effect made it so that only 5 miles or so was possible in the Speedo, but he did it! Ray Ray, Sudeep and I went to lend our support about halfway through. Also, a good friend of Josh's (an ACTUAL marathon runner!) ran with Josh the whole way for moral support! It was really beautiful of him and definitely pushed Josh through. All in all, he ran/walked 30 miles over the course of a bunch of hours and raised enough money to help support Tuna's eating habits and a few other projects in India. Thanks to everyone who pledged and offered support otherwise. Training for Tuna Cup 2008 is well underway. :o)



Ray was a little bored right from the start :o)
The "I Bleed Dodger Blue" speedo shot :o) Boy was I proud!
