You, the judges, have spoken...we now have winners in the 2005 Traveling Colours Contest!
1st - Gary Robbins of Squamish, BC took top spot with the photo of his exuberant finish at the 50km Knee Knacker North Shore Trail Run last July. Gary will receive a refund on his 2006 membership dues and eternal bragging rights.
2nd - Robbins also took second place with his exposed rear end at Cape Spear. He officially becomes the first athlete to take a gold and a silver in the same event while being censored!
3rd - Glenn Pace's photo of his finish at the Western States 100 Mile Run took the bronze. Glenn will receive a cozy hoodie from North Shore Athletics to keep him warm at the end of his next 100-miler.
4th/5th - Ellie Greenwood at 5647m on Kala Patthar in Nepal's Everest region tied with Fred Wickens fighting the big fat-bottomed troll under a bridge near Seattle.
Congrats Gary, Glenn, Ellie, Fred and to all Club members who submitted photos of their blue club t-shirt in action!
On that happy note, I am pleased to announce that the black 2006 Club t-shirts just arrived and the 2006 Traveling Colors Contest is officially on! If you opted for shirt pick-up, please send an email specifying a time you would like to come by (any time works - if I am not in I will leave the shirt in a bag labelled with your name on the front porch; I will confirm pick-up time and my address in an email). If you paid for shipping, I will send your shirt out this week so... start thinking about where you might like to take your 2006 photo contest submission!
Happy Trails,
Sibylle Tinsel
Chief Executive Fat Ass
PS Word from those who have seen the cool black 2006 CFA t-shirt say it's a keeper. If you've not got one coming, join the Club and your shirt will be in the mail within hours!
