Jeff Forte and Diane Wood emerge from the official Suds Run Pace Car. |
Me, with beard, and my little buddy Kevin from Michigan, John Helen on bike, shrimp boats tied up at the docks. |
|
|
Me, pre-race, with my honey Karen, wishing me luck. How about those Seventies style shorts? |
Photographers on the roof, Joyce Carpenter center. |

Me crossing Southard, Rocky-style, on way to Green Parrot, having just purged in the bushes by the La Concha. |
And they're off! Race starting at the Half Shell, the old Chevron fuel tanks (now Dante’s) in the background. Rick Dostal, event organizer with green hat and beer. Big Ed Orlando with Ray Bans and beard to the left. “Red Beard”, (one of the original Key West airbrush artists) with Ray Bans, blue t-shirt, facing camera to the right. |

|
Me and my bud Rolfe von Ottenfeld, a six foot two blonde haired, blue eyed Brazilian. |
Giving the Parrot an Up the Irish salute. |
|
|
At the Sandcastle finish line, hoisting Kevin aloft. |
Roscoe, the official Run mascot, with green tipped tail. A noble beast; he lived like a lion and died like a dog. |
|
|
Me checking my time which wasn't too bad, coming in well under fifteen minutes. |
Kevin and Rolfe crashing in my pad, the inevitable end of another Suds Run. |
