I like the picture of the nude participant here because it seems to capture her casually walking around fully nude post-race. She appears to be wearing the official Bay to Breakers finishers medal around her neck. In my opinion, this adds a bit of dimension and context to the photo, even though the picture itself isn't one of the best in quality that we've seen. At any rate, pretty awesome moment.

And this isn't the only example of this happening. In past years I've noticed plenty of naked men among the serious runners, though rarely a female. One notable example was this girl in 2011.

She didn't have a number/timing chip (this was before they cracked down), so there was no way to tell what time she ran exactly, but in a B2B discussion thread someone else in her corral who finished shortly behind her estimated her time somewhere in the high 40's. That actually puts her time on par with the lower end of the professional female runners in the race. Later on it turned out that she was a scholarship track/cross country runner from a California University at the time (no, I don't recall which one, or her name, and even if I did it wouldn't be right to mention it), or at least that was the story.

Pretty cool, though, right?

I remember this story! Her name is Becky and she actually wrote in on a blog where people accused a photo of her being fake. They were claiming she was photoshopped into the photo and she wrote in to say "No, that's me and I was naked and fast!" It's in the comments section here:

Here's another great collection that focuses mainly on the beautiful and awesome bottomless runner. She's very fast and kicking ass during the race. I love it. Courtesy of Flickr user SF1eye.

They're not. The first two are from the 2013 Bay to Breakers. The woman with the "censored" signs is known as Malecution on Flickr. This year, she was dressed as Dora Kelly Lange from the HBO series "True Detective." You can see her in earlier posts in this thread.

The third picture on the bottom is from the 2005 Fremont Solstice Parade in Seattle, Washington (see here: https://forum.oneclickchicks.com/show...=129790&page=3). If you look closely, you can see the statue of Lenin holding a sign which reads: "Linda Averill" and "Seattle City Council."

What made you think they were from this year's Bay to Breakers?

Classification corrections I always welcome, but note: if the filenames were as found, it could just be that the Fremont one is another of the errors that creep into the interwebs and, once established, seem impossible to expunge (I've seen a B2B "water girls" from a few years back attributed to London WNBR, at a supposedly reputable -- and editable -- site, for example, that attempts to fix went for naught). Here, though, some that are B2B '14, illustrating once again that even xy aficionados sometimes capture some of what we're all here for, tangential though their glance may be..
