I am a 40yr old female from San Luis Obipso, Ca looking to crew 2010. I am a Certified Personal Trainer, Triathlon Team Coach and am a trail running junkie moving up to 50m Ultra Trail this year. I am organized, work hard and have the best damn attitude out there. Contact me if you need help. -Samantha coach@teamVformation.com
I am a 25 year old male from Los Angeles, CA looking to join a crew for the 2010 race. I am a Half IM and IM triathlete but my background is running and it remains my strongest sport. I am always positive, outgoing and, of course, work & run hard. Please contact me if you need an extra set of legs. Best of luck to everyone involved!

I like challenges, new adventures and would love to be on a crew in 2010. I will be 43 by then and my athletic experience ranges from running up the Empire State Building (short but fun) to Sprint/24 Hour Adventure Races, Marathons and now 2 Ultras (50mile last week). 2010 will be active and nothing would make it better than working together in July. I don't sleep and I love the heat. My organizational skills, willingness to do any job and of course my humor will be assets to any team. Happy to talk any time. eric.gelber@cbre.com

I'll be 51 as of Badwater 2010. I run marathons and am registered for a 40 miler and two 100 mile races - Keys 100 and Iron Horse. I hold a Wilderness First Responder (first aid) certification. I lead trips for various "outings" organizations. I travel extensively and have total control of my schedule. I'm available whenever I want to take time off. You may contact me at Scott @ TheBrittingGroup.com. I'm happy to help with all aspects of a runner's needs for completing Badwater.
I'm a 45 year old male from Bakersfield, CA. I have done a half dozen marathons, same olympic tri, and am planning on doing Ironman Idaho in June. I am a Firefighter for Kern County and would love to support a team. Dream of doing this race myself and would love the experience. Good luck guys!

Debra A. Haaland, 48, Carmel, CA, 505-554-0545, excellent team player, Native American, marathon runner, good common sense, kind, good sense of humor. I grew up in the high elevation and heat of the NM desert, and I have a high tolerance to heat (and pain), and lack of sleep. I am willing and able.
Dustin, 33, Fort Collins, Colorado. I enjoy romance novels, corn dogs, the heat and extremely long walks/runs in the middle of the desert. Some background...this past summer I completed the Leadville Trail 100 and have completed a few adventure races over the past few years. I am a Firefighter/EMT so I can handle the sights and smells that might be offered up in the 2010 race. Really, would love to be a extra hand.
Thanks,

Hi, I'm looking to pace and or crew at Badwater 2010. I am 33 and live in Virginia. I paced the EPIC Bill Bradley at Badwater 2009 and was his day time pacer.
