Kelp Crawl '08

This past weekend was the '08 Pacific Grove Triathlon in which The Bridge helped out. They manned a turnabout for the runners which was the last leg a the three. Here's a few pictures of the men at work. The one just to the right shows the set-up and some of the guys filling cups and getting ready to cut up some power bars for the runners.






To the left are some of the guys with the well-known 'rim grip' that they are instructed to have with water for the runners....water, not power bars!



To the right is a picture of Tone-E with his version of the 'rim-grip'. For those that aren't yet aware, Tone-E is our man for the 'Pancake eating Stack-Down' at the church coming up in just a couple of short weeks. We're banking on Tone's experience and expertise in this area. He doesn't like to boast, but merely says 'Ask my dad, he'll tell you!"





Here to the left is one of the action shots of our guys. Sometimes it's difficult being rejected by the runners. You get up early and set up all those cups, cut up the powerbars and hold out for the runners....and they blow by you like you're meaningless! But just take a look at the video below and you'll see the great appreciation some runners have for our boys!
