2008 - Year 6 - Ann's Get Your Fat Ass Off the Couch - Results
18 October 2008 - 28 Starters
Report - Well another amazing day was had by all for the anual get you fat ass off the couch run. The torrential rain from the previous day was long gone and the morning was greeted by gorgeous sunshine. The trails were amazing with all the shades of red, orange and yellow and the streaks of sunshine peeking through the trees. A fairly large group of very keen trail runners gathered. Bill Des,Pano, chris, Ran and darbyKai set off with a strong steady climb up Berkeley and quickly disappeared in the trails. It was also great to see all the new runners out for this fat ass event....hope to see you all in future fat ass events. As I ran down the powerlines and made my right hand turn part way down I was greeted by THE PUDDLE/lake! I thought it might be a good idea to change that part of the course next year but everyone voted unanimously to leave it as is for the adventure aspect!...OK....the puddle remains but Karl may modify the bushes next year. All in all it was a great day with all my favorite trail buddies. Hope to see you all next year...spread the word!!
