Dear friends and members of Club Fat Ass,
With many Club events and other outdoor activities to choose from, its sure been a busy past few weeks!
Before you continue to the Event Reports and Results below, I'd like to remind you that I still have a couple of unclaimed CFA shirts. (You know who you are.) Please contact me to arrange a pick-up time, so you can wear your shirt and participate in the photo contest.
Happy Trails,
Sibylle Tinsel

NEWS
Website
Thanks for your great feedback on the website and to all who helped with the needs analysis, implementation and migration from the old site. If you've never been involved with doing a website, be forewarned... it's a lot more work than what the salesperson tells you!
We chose the new format because of the promise of easy-to-use features that would make it easy for Club members to host events, find events and share experiences.
Post your personal running stories, upload photos, participate in the forum or comment on existing stories or photos. We even can set you up with your own blog. 'Need help? Please first check out the online help where we try to answer most frequently asked questions. If that doesn't get you satisfaction, please contact me and I'll do what I can to help.
Please remember that the site is best viewed in Firefox (free download at www.firefox.com). We are working to fix the shortcomings in Internet Explorer. Thank you for your patience.

CAUSES YOUR CLUB SUPPORTS
If you have any causes close to your heart and want to raise awareness and/or funds let me know. A number of hosts use their events as fund raisers and there is a special section on our website to highlight certain fund raising efforts.
Jesper Olsen's World Run Jesper's has almost finished the North American leg of his World Run. He will likely arrive in New York October 7. Despite being tired and repeated equipment problems his daily log shows him in good spirits and enjoying the company and help of ultra runners along his route.
