Traveling Colours Contest 2005

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 (see #22 below) 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 the 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!

# 3 This just in from Ellie Greenwood of Britain: "Well my fat Ass T-shirt has done quite a bit of traveling since I left Vancouver in April. I spent the summer working in Norway but these photos are from my recent 3 week trek to Nepal. It was a fab trip, where I was trekking in the Everest region. The trekking was not too hard as we were going so slowly due to the altitude, averaging 3900m but getting to a peak of 5647m! This photo is at that peak - called kala patthar which overlooks Everest base camp and the big peak in the background is Everest itself! maybe a future fat ass event doing the everest marathon which goes from base camp to a place called Namche bazaar, but given the record by a Sherpa is over 7 hours it might be a challenging one!	# 3 - Ellie Greenwood in Nepal #3 - Ellie Greenwood in Nepal
