Coachella At The Beach

 

  

Every year on 4th of July they have this "race" on the beach right below where I live. It's called the "Ironman" and it involves; running 1 mile, paddling a surfboard for 1 mile and then chugging a 6 pack of beer as fast as you can with out it coming back up. Needless to say there are tons of people participating and also watching this event.

This year I decided to concentrate on taking photos of some of the cool girls who attend/race -  it's like "Coachella/meets 4th of July" on the beach.

If you want to see the more scandalous, and in depth photos of the race/party you can head on over to Ian's Blog - welcome to crazy time....

The Ironman OR Crazy Day at The Beach

We have this 4th of July tradition where I live in Hermosa Beach - it's called the "ironman".  Basically you run, paddle, and then drink a 6 pack - as fast as you can.

Hey, I didn't' say it was classy - just that it's a 4th of July small beach town tradition.

People dress up, everyone has fun. The party starts with the race at 10 AM and goes into the night ending with fireworks off the ocean.  Long and fun day.

Hope your 4th of July was a good one!

Paddle!

Look for your friends with your number and your beer is near by...
