Run Run Santa

Santa hat? Check
Speedo? Check
Running Shoes? Check

Sounds like Jake had everything needed to participate in The 8th Annual Santa Speedo run in Boston held this past Saturday. Damn, if Brothers had gone with Boston as a location instead of New Mexico.


No the run is not in honor of Jake's movin' and groovin' in Jarhead, but a winter run through the streets of Boston to raise money for women and children charities in the Boston area. This year was the Women's Lunch Place, a daytime community for poor and homeless women and their children.

Like many a "just so crazy it might work" idea, the run was thought up hanging out at a local bar, with just 5 guys stepping up and running it the first year, it has grown to several hundred who stripped down to their speedos Saturday and pounded the pavement for a good cause.

Sure walking out of a mall in Southern California in Speedo is one thing, but running in one in 20F in December now that's a dare. See ya next year Jake?
