"First Rain" tomorrow.......?
 

Sometimes you have to be a weather watcher to get a sense for when people are likely to get naked. Such is the case with UCSC's "first rain" naked run. The other day, I checked previous run dates, and they were often in the first week of October. Well, its the first week of October, folks, so keep an eye on the weather pages. Tomorrow it's forecast to rain in San Francisco. Will Santa Cruz get wet also? I'm willing to bet the answer is yes, and so guys - get set for a flood of pics and vids, and if you live in the area - grab your camera and head to Santa Cruz! Then post your pics right here.....

Yes, that is one of the hats I like to wear :)

Its now official - the forecast for Santa Cruz Friday night is......RAIN! More importantly - FIRST rain!!

Details here:

Of course, it could hold off until very late, in which case they may run Saturday night instead which should also be wet.

Yehaw! - how I love campus runs and bikes!! There is nothing like them....

BTW - I noticed that often lately, someone will post links to earlier threads on the topic sooner or later. So here goes:

OK, can I make it any plainer than this??

Looks like "first Rain" should be on......the circle is where Santa Cruz is. This image was taken Friday afternoon.

(bump, bump...) - and of course, the title of the thread is now misleading: "tomorrow" is now "today"

Okay, not the bestest (at least one hopes not), but the firstest, and indication that more will appear...
...for some reason not uploading; http://www.marjoriemay.blogspot.com/...irst-rain.html

Good start. The text says hundreds ran, and cars were parked with their headlights on to illuminate the spectacle.

stay tuned...

I see no reason not to post them although hot they are not. Klondike

OK, no new pics yet - but...I came across this item while looking for pics:

First off, you will note that this list of top 10 campus streaks is really only a top 5. Duh!

Anyway, I post this link only because it contains a reference to a run I had not heard of before - the University of Minnesota "Jack Mytton" streak. Mytton might be spelled with only one T. As you will note, there is one pic from this streak here at this link. Perhaps there are others.....??

This ranking is kind of backwords. Here is my list of top campus streaks, in order:


*Naked Mile (extinct or not what it used to be) - night
1) UCSC First Rain - night
2) Harvard Primal Scream - night
3) Berkeley Library Streak - daylight (indoors)
4) Tufts Quad Run -night
5) Trinity Senior Streak - daylight
6) Swarthmore Streak - daylight
7) UChicago Polar Bear Run - daylight
8) Lewis and Clark Naked Mile - daylight
9) Hamilton Streaker Club - daylight
10) UMinnnesota Jack Mytton Run -daylight

- based on the pics I've seen....

Here is a more complete top ten list:

Included in the ranking are ten schools of which 4 are new to me, or at least I have not seen pics from them.
These new ones are:

Penn State -Mifflin Streak
Lawrence University
Cal Poly -Streak Hathway
Dartmouth -Streaking the Green, Ledyard Challenge

A few new search terms for you....:)

just biding time here....and learning some new things.

This video:

isn't sexy (heavily censored) but it is interesting. In it, members of the Hamilton Streaking Club are interviewed about their naked activites, which include streaks on many other college campuses besides Hamilton. Anyone got pics? There is a lot of footage here, but it is all censored.
