What: A 100K run on the Baden Powell Trail between Deep Cove and Lynn Canyon.


Why: A few Fools in the club have signed up for the Coyote Two Moon 100 Mile race in March that has 28,000 feet of uphill and they really, really need to get in more distance and hill work.


Who: The Fools and anyone who wants to join in the fun.

Where: Meet at Panorama Park in Deep Cove, North Vancouver, BC

When: Saturday, February 23, 2008 at 04:00


Route: The Pure Foolishness 100K will consist of four loops on the Pure Satisfaction Course. You can read the foolproof directions at: http://www.clubfatass.com/events/puresatisfaction/course

Climbing: According to some very informative GPS readings taken by Colin Freeland during the 2007 Pure Satisfaction Run each loop of the route has an elevation gain of 5,280 feet, giving a total of 21,120 feet of climbing during the four loops.

Aid: Be prepared to be self-sufficient. There should be water at Deep Cove and at the Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge washrooms. Of course we will also have access to our vehicles when we return to Deep Cove at the end of each loop.

Motto: Nothing is foolproof to a talented fool.
