The Badwater 135 started this morning. Unfortunately the web site seems to be overloaded and I have not been able to get any updates. Here’s the link: http://www.badwater.com/2006web/index.html

From this you should be able to get to the live update area. I don’t think anyone from Hawaii is running the race or even crewing this year, however several past HURT participants were listed as starters. 2005 winner Scott Jurek is returning and hoping to break 24 hours. Hopefully the site will work later today. The main site is http://www.badwater.com/

So if you think it is HOT lately where you live, think about how HOT it is for these runners in Death Valley!!
