Patagonia Tour

As part of my road trip in Cali for Shadow of the Giants 50k a couple weeks ago, I dropped by the Patagonia headquarters.  George gave me a great tour of the campus.

 

Also, it was really cool to check out the Tin Shed (pic below) where it all started many years ago. However, and perhaps most importantly, my tour reinforced why I love being a member of the Patagonia Ultrarunning Team.  Everywhere on campus was evidence of the ecological ethos that you read about so much in Patagonia’s publications.  Seeing this company ‘practice what they preach’ and not just another corporate green wash was really inspiring to me, on so many levels.

So, thanks to everyone for your involvement with the team!  We’re doing much more than just running trails!
