Speedo-clad runners raise funds…and eyebrows

BaretoCare is a charity fun run that took place on Saturday 3 December in Cape Town. It involved over 100 guys participating in a run from Green Point to Camps Bay …. in their Speedo’s.

From the organizer: ”We decided to do it in memory of Chris Henderson who passed away from Diabetes related complications earlier in the year, and who was a loving father to one of our runners. None of us knew what a positive response the run would receive, with people hooting and running out of restaurants to have photos with the brave guys in their crazy hats. This year we have decided to add more purpose to the run by doing it to raise funds for the Saint Angela Trust and harness all the attention and hype surrounding our one year anniversary run.”
