A Bay to Breakers break
15. Mai 2005
Posted by Nat Criou, "We're Feeling Lucky" Team
The Bay to Breakers 12k run is a hallowed (if irreverent)
Bay Area tradition
that starts at San Francisco's Embarcadero (the Bay), and ends in Golden Gate Park (sort of close to the breakers of the Pacific - ok, it's a bit of poetic license). Though serious runners compete, the streets are clogged with up to 70,000 hardy souls —
— a mix of halfway decent and annual runners, often in costume (or not; there's a band of nude runners too).
Today's 94th race included more than 40 Googlers running as the "We're Feeling Lucky" team. We ran for fun and to raise money for the
Leukemia and Lymphoma Society
. Our "Lucky" Team "donned special T-shirts emblazoned with the
hurdles doodle from the 2004 Summer Olympics
on the front, and individual letters that collectively spell GOOOOOOOGLE on the back. Faster runners got the G-O tees, and well, the rest of us got O-O-G-L-E.
Of course, we did a little advertising. This was a good crowd to inform that as always, we're
hiring
