Run To the Clouds 2010 Results

 

27 March 2010


Report. Hey Club Fat Assers,  wow, what a great day. 

NO RAIN and 33 runners came out and ran over 700 kms of trails today.

22 of our runners ran the full 25 km route or more  (remember no penalty for running more than the course requires)... and enjoyed the beautiful lake and mountain views. 

There was a couple of few Club Fat Ass members out on their first runs with the club -- congratulations you guys, and hopefully the butt kicker route didn't turn you off coming back out for some other CFA runs   And a new age record broken with Ronald rolling in a full 25 km run in the 70+ age group in under 4 hours. The course record was broken again today with 2 fast guys (Chris and Matt) in a smoking fast 2:06...  Props to Lysanne for a 2:42 fastest female time in, OH YEAH and the CFA pig even went for it's first "cool down swim" after a pretty easy 8 kms.  

Did I mention no rain!  That was sure nice.  Oh yeah, how about a shout-out to our 4 first aiders that rolled around the course on their mountain bikes -- that's why we had no big owees! And another big thanks sent out to Chris L who moto'd up to the 1450' high aid station with about 16 liters of fluid and lots of fun treats to reward the runners that made the huge effort to drag the fat asses all the way up there.

Thanks to my bride Diane who helped out with buying all the goodies you enjoyed, helping with registration etc. As usual, I owe her....  

Hmm, what else... Oh yeah, we thought Ean and Rob were lost but no ---- they were just off exploring. After hearing about an old ghost town off the north end of the course up in Indian Arm, these 2 guys decided to "take a small detour" off course and go check it out. See Ean's pictures and video's..... rad.  Maybe next year that detour and extra mileage may have to become part of the course.

Many of the runners re-grouped at the Golden Spike Pub in Port Moody for post run festivities. Prizes courtesy of Trail Runner Magazine, North Face, Brooks, Debbie Does Fitness, Kintec Footlabs and Norco Bikes were drawn and shared around. Thanks to these guys too.

Hope you all enjoyed the run,  see you next year.  

Cheers everyone !!!
