After a 20 year hiatus I started running again in January 2006. Since that time I’ve run a number of 10K races and a couple of half-marathons. In that time I’ve also “run across” some interesting interesting people, places, and sights… including a completely naked woman crossing the street at Columbia and Cordova Streets, a couple of hundred naked bike riders at Kitsilano Beach and some cool graffiti and posters. I’ve got pictures of the latter (but no photos of the people without clothes…).
One of my favorite runs takes me from the east Vancouver, though the rough and tumble Downtown Eastside, upscale Coal Harbour, Stanley Park then along the seawall back to the Main Street/Chinatown area.
Above is a photo of Shepard Fairy’s “Obey Giant” campaign, which have been cropping up around GM Place, home of the Vancouver Canucks, near Chinatown (at Abbott and Expo Blvd).
For more photos of stuff I’m seeing around town (including anti-Olympic graffiti) check out my flickr photos.

Thanks for Colin for pointing out the Obey campaigns ~ Shepard Fairey is his hero!
