The land of the Peacocks was the home of the Portland Warrior Dash and the last Warrior Dash of the Bear Naked 2011 Tour.

Bear Naked was there giving the needed energy to those warriors who needed it. The basic 10,000 warriors taking on the tough 3.2 mile course was not the only thing taking place this weekend,we also witnessed a warrior wedding!

It was the perfect way to end the weekend and our Warrior Dash events.

Bear Naked Tour is coming close to an end, and we were very lucky to have one of our last events be Bumbershoot in Seattle.

Not a bad day at the office right?
For those of you who don’t know what Bumbershoot is, it is a yearly 3 day Music and Arts festival that takes over Seattle and the surrounding area around the Space Needle. Bear Naked was there giving people the energy to enjoy there long weekend in sunny Seattle. Bumbershoot is by far a great event and one that anyone living near Seattle should check out at least once, especially if you like seeing local musicians and artist.
That does it for this week! Next week we will be attending our last Warrior Dash of the 2011 tour in Oregon.
see you guys there.

The big 20 foot orange Bear Naked trailer arrived in Seaside, OR for Hood to Coast a 200 mile relay race to the coast of Oregon. Bear Naked Granola was at the finish enjoying the beach and giving runner the energy to recover from a crazy 24 hr long race.
It turned out to be a beautiful day for runners and on lookers Runners started there long journey to the coast at 8am the previous day and the first team came running through the finish line around 7:40 am the next day and started the trend of teams arriving in Seaside, the last team didn’t roll in till the sun started to fall behind the horizon.. but arrived just in time to enjoy the festivities and fireworks

Well that does it for this week. Next week our tour takes us to Seattle for Bumpershoot, See you there!

This week the Bear Naked Granola tour hit Copper Mountain, CO for Warrior Dash.
This by far had to be one of the toughest courses i have seen being on Tour this year. 10,000 feet above sea level to monstrous hills . but that didn’t stop the thousands of warriors who came out and took over Copper Mountain resort and turned it into a true Warriors camp, Bear Naked was in the center of all the festivities.
Bear Naked Granola gave the energy needed to the Warriors so they could conquered the hellish course.
We also were visited by two special guests who decided to run the course and take me along with them.. Me and running 10,000 feet above sea level don’t mix…

One mile into the course…

One 1/2 miles in…

Finishing!

10,000 feet got nothing on us!! well that wraps, another week on the road… Next stop Seaside, OR for hood to coast… here we come sun and beach…. hopefully sun.

The Bear Naked Granola Summer tour came to Providence RI for 3 days for the Rock ‘n’ Roll expo and 1/2 marathon.
We had a booth giving out Granola to the 9000 runners and attendees at the expo helping them get ready for the race. we also had a Green screen booth giving people the opportunity to take some crazy pictures to show to there friends and family.
On race day we were once again welcomed by lovely mother nature ( no i am not joking) we got soaked, but no nor’ester type of weather could stop the die hard marathon runners from accomplishing what they have been training for.

To finish and put an end to Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon Providence finishers were welcomed to a free concert headlined by Sugar Ray.
Next stop Chicago for Rock ‘n’ roll 1/2 Marathon, see you there! -Jon

Bear Naked arrived in Mt. Morris (Flint, Mi) rated the most dangerous city in America but that didn’t stop us nor the 26,000 Warriors who came out to take on the 3 mile obstacle course. Dangerous city or not they still needed energy! and we gave it to them despite the nearly 100 degree weather.. first Warrior Dash that it didn’t rain!

The Bear Naked obstacle part of the 3 mile course, is nothing to turn your head at..

We had a BA come all the way from Florida to hang out with us, take photos and give out Granola to finishing Warriors.

Have you ever thought about doing a Triathlon? well if getting up with the sounds of roosters is something you can easily do, then you are one step closer to doing a triathlon.. but of course being able to swim, run, and bike is also key.
Bear Naked Granola showed up at 5am Saturday and Sunday in Colonial Beach, VA to give energy to the 500 participants looking to win it all.

What makes Sailing Extreme? How about a dozen Sail boats on a narrow course, sailing at 40 knots while vertical.
Extreme Sailing Series arrived in Boston for its 4th act out of 9 this season over the 4th of July weekend. Bear Naked Granola tried to get a branded boat into the race… it didn’t go to well..

The Bear Naked Granola team gave energy to sailors, spectators, and volunteers during all 5 Day’s of the Extreme Sailing Series.
