Naked Beer Mile Fun Run

This year will be the 8th annual Bare Burro Nude 5K run, and at the suggestion of the guy who’s won more of those races than anyone else, this year will also feature a Naked Beer Mile Fun Run on Saturday April 22.

The concept of a Beer Mile is that you drink a 12oz beer as quickly as possible.  Then run 1/4 mile. Then you drink another beer.  And run another 1/4 mile.  After four beers and 1 mile you’ve completed the race.  And likely on your way to a very happy afternoon.

The event will be Saturday April 22 at Olive Dell Ranch in southern California.  Start time is 3pm.   It’s open to anyone who can drink and run, jog, skip, saunter, walk or crawl for one mile.   For those who don’t enjoy beer, there is an option of a carbonated beverage like a cola or lemon-lime drink.   Sorry but water, juices, milk or a double latte don’t qualify.

The cost is $10 to participate which includes the beer and specialty selected prizes for top finishers.   You also need to buy a day pass to Olive Dell Ranch which range from $16 to $22 per person.  That also gets you full access to the resort with swimming pool, jacuzzi, hiking trails, and an evening karaoke party.   All naked of course.

There’s also plenty of camping and RV sites so you can make it a full weekend and do the Naked Beer Mile on Saturday and the Bare Burro Nude 5K on Sunday.  Click here for a video about the Bare Burro and Olive Dell.

If you’d like to get more information as plans come together, and so we can plan for how many runners we’ll have, please complete the form below.

2016 Bare Burro Nude 5K at Olive Dell Ranch

Not Too Wet, Still Wild

Despite being the coolest and dampest Bare Burro ever, over 250 people turned out for the annual event, with over 200 of them participating in the run.  There was about 5 minutes of rain, 10 minutes of sun, and just as many happy smiles as always.

This was a highly competitive year, with 25 finishers coming in under 30 minutes.  That may not sound too fast, but when you consider it’s a challenging and technical trail run with LOTS of hills, it’s very impressive.   We also had new course records set.  A first time participant set the fastest time by a woman at 24:28, placing her 1st for women, and 5th in the overall run.  And another first timer set the record for running barefoot at 32:42.   Full race results can be found on the Olive Dell Ranch website.

Purchase Photos

This year photos were taken at the finish line, and for all award winners.   If you haven’t received the low res watermarked photos yet, you can request them HERE.   If you received the low res versions and want to purchase the high res, just click the Buy Now button below.  It’s $7.50 for the photos.

Please note that to protect privacy, we will ONLY send photos to the name and email address used for race registration.

Share the Fun

If you’ve got some fun pictures from your day at the Bare Burro run, please share them on your social media pages with #OliveDellRanch or #BareBurro.  Always love seeing the smiles and enthusiasm!

 

2015 Bare Burro Nude 5K

The 6th Annual Bare Burro Nude 5K –  Sunday April 19, 2015

Over the last 5 years it’s become one of the biggest nude runs in the country with a great mix of ages, genders and running abilities.  The 2014 event had over 250 runners, with the top finisher at 21:01, which is quite impressive for a technical trail run with lots of hills.

This is a nude 5K trail run/walk through the beautiful foothills of Olive Dell Ranch.  All participants run or walk nude (shoes allowed – and encouraged). The run is primarily dirt fire roads, with some asphalt and a few sections of dirt trail. It’s a technical course designed for fun and enjoyment. There are amazing views of the countryside. Donkeys roam throughout the canyon and you may even get a glimpse of one! Throughout the course, volunteers will be handing out water to help keep you quenched as you go along.

Participants range from accomplished runners, running clubs, men, women, young and old – looking for healthy, fun exercise in a natural setting. Whether you run, walk or some combination – it’s a fun and totally unique experience.

This year, drawstring back packs are included for everyone who pre-registers, and while supplies last on race day.

An Awards Ceremony will follow the run with awards for the top finishers in each age category for women and men. 

The race begins and ends at the clubhouse by the swimming pool.  (There is a large Jacuzzi, sun deck, restaurant, bar and showers. All facilities are open to race participants for the entire day).

Suggested items to bring with you:

• Keep yourself well hydrated before, during and after the race
• Sunscreen
• Hat
• Sunglasses
• Chapstick
• Towel to sit on (This is nudist etiquette)
• Money for restaurant and refreshment bar
• Good running shoes
• Sandals or flip-flops for afterwards
• Shower available if you want to get cleaned up, afterwards
• Flashlight -if you plan to stay the night

A word about vehicle keys: where do you put them when you have no pockets?  We have a place you can securely check them while you’re out on the run, or enjoying the facilities.

We’re looking for fun-loving individuals, couples and clubs to come challenge themselves, challenge each other and enjoy the natural freedoms of a truly unique running event.  To see what a few participants had to say you can check out the blogs from the 2014 winner, as well as a first time woman participant. Online registration is available at Active.com and the mail-in registrations will soon be available to download at the Bare Burro Event page on OliveDell.com

Join Us Sunday April 19 for the 6th Annual BB5K!

Top Ten Things To Do Nude in 2010

At the beginning of 2010 we made a list of the Top Ten Things to Do Nude in 2010. It’s for people that love nude recreation, and those who are curious and would like to try it sometime. Some are specific events in a certain place and time. Others can be done almost anywhere.

There are hundreds of campgrounds and resorts. Find one near you at http://www.AANR.com

It doesn’t really make sense that nudity gets a bad reputation with some people. We pay extra for the natural and organic food at the grocery store, think the Prius is cool because it’s environmentally friendly and are taking re-usable bags to the store to avoid excess packaging and waste. But getting in touch with the environment in your natural state is somehow bad. Let’s change that!

There are nude beaches at lakes, rivers and oceans around the country, and around the world. Get out, have fun, be healthy and active.

We’re creating short videos for each of the Top Ten Things To Do Nude in 2010. You can find them on our YouTube page.

Which ones will you do this year? A day at a local nude resort of campground, running in the Bay to Breakers in San Francisco, learning to surf at Black’s Beach? The fun is waiting. All you have to lose is some silly inhibitions that natural is good for your breakfast cereal, but bad for you.

Black’s Beach Nude Surf Event

What’s good about a summer day at Black’s Beach and some nude surfing? Just about everything!

The annual Nude Surf Event was held at Black’s Beach on Saturday August 1, 2009.

Early Morning Warm Up

Participation was a little less than previous years, possibly due to being held on a Saturday instead of Sunday, but there was still plenty of surfing action and Whoo Hoo’s. There’s even a special shirt which you can get for $10 if you email Geoff@BlacksBeach.org. The money goes to the Blacks Beach Bares, a great group worthy of your $10.

Weather started with overcast, got sunny and then a few clouds rolled through when the surf competition started. Air temps were still in the mid 70’s and water was reported at 79, so the clouds didn’t matter at all.

Participants included men and women ranging from the mid 20’s – 50’s. Waves were on the small side, but plenty of waves were caught giving the judges enough criteria to make awards for best male and best female surfer.
A boogie boarding and body surfing contest took place later in the day.

Dates for the 2010 event will be announced in early 2010, but it’s never too early to start practicing some nude surfing.

Fremont Solstice Parade Nude Bikers

Would you be Chicken to ride nude in a parade?

We love when nudity, fun and public acceptance come together. It’s the way it should be. Every single person on this planet has a body – although a good percentage of them try to deny that. So when people are allowed to be free with their body, and gain an enthusiastic response from others, it has to be a healthy thing.

Which is why the Summer Solstice Parade at the Fremont Fair near Seattle is such a great time. Each year hundreds of men and women take off their clothes, put on some body paint, and ride ahead of the parade through the streets. The crowd lining the route is young and old, men and women, gay and straight, families, couples and singles of every race. And they’ll all happy, smiling and enjoying the great energy created when people relax and have fun.

The body painting ranges from simple (all one color) to psychedelic to themes. We have to admit liking the ones that portray a conventional theme, but done nude. Like the bride and groom, or policeman, geisha girls, Homer Simpson or Wonder Woman. But whatever your taste, whatever your beliefs about your own body, you have to appreciate a couple hundred people who are willing to get naked, get painted and bring so many smiles and so much fun to Fremont and the world.

San Onofre Nude Beach Frisbee Golf

Small Crowd on a Winter Day

One of the great things about California is that even in winter you can get great nude beach days. Like today.We headed down to Trail Six at San Onofre and surfed a few hours.Of course this time of year that means a full wetsuit since the water is in the high 50’s, but the sun was shining and beach temperatures were about 70.

Drying the wetsuit

The crowd was small.About a half dozen surfers (all guys).Not many of the regulars until later in the afternoon.There was one young couple.As you’d expect, the guy was naked almost immediately, the girl took much longer.They didn’t stay long, but at least got to enjoy an hour or two of laying naked in the sun in February.

Summer is still the best season for San Onofre. The air is warm all day and so is the water.Sun doesn’t set until after 8. But in winter you always get a good parking place (sometimes in summer you don’t get one at all), and you get your choice of places to sit. There’s a peaceful and quiet feeling to the place that’s nice. And it’s very easy to get in a game of nude Frisbee golf without hitting anyone with the occasional bad toss.

There are official courses all over the country, but with a little imagination you can create a course anywhere. At San Onofre we use trash cans as the “holes”. Sometimes we use big pieces of driftwood that stick up out of the sand. You score when you hit the can or stick. You can set the course as short or long as you like. We enjoy mixing it up.A few short holes, a few long ones. A few clear, open shots….and a few where you have to negotiate some big bushes and gullies. If you’ve got some sports you love, and enjoy even more naked, let us know about them. We’re always looking to update the website and appreciate contributions.

Thanks!
