Club Fat Ass is a grassroots sports club with a worldwide vision. Our members host trail running, triathlon, cycling and other "active lifestyle" events for fellow members. Club events are fun, physically challenging, environmentally friendly and emphasize camaraderie as much as competition. Each event is a reflection of the unique personality of the Event Host. All Club events are free to Club members. Membership is open to anyone who enjoys playing outdoors. Join us!
This is an archive of our old website. We're now on Facebook!
A slideshow of photos can be found here.Photos added to the Flickr CFA group and tagged with XTC2008 will automatically be added to this slideshow. If anybody has a start photo, please send to me and I'll post here.
This is a continuation of Baldy's Bonkfest. We're going back to finish the run. Hey, some people rest a bit longer between loops! Thanks to Baldwin for letting me use his text. There's room to car pool if anyone's interested.
We have started a process of redesigning the CFA website and especially its homepage.
The main issues we want to improve are easier access to the vast user generated content, better visibility of upcoming events, simpler navigation, and a general face-lift.
2. Perhaps not so good for the training: sometime-CFA participant Dave Smith is managing Everything Wine, the huge new wine store at Marine & Mackay: http://www.bclocalnews.com/business/19541369.html
I am going to do six hours of trail work on the Sea-to-Sky Trail in North Vancouver. This is the trail that follows the Dirty Duo course from the start to the junction with the Baden-Powell trail. If anyone wants to join me please let me know so I can arrange to have enough tools and materials available.
So I did it again, Brad Holmes of Namaimo won it in 6:00:00 I was second in 6:18:00, faster than last year for me by 18 minutes. I'm happy with that, but sad that there were so few of us out there... The conditions of the road and the weather were ideal this year. The organizers should get their act together and add the words .....and Ultramarathon" to their name and then maybe more runners would do it. The Great Lake Walk & Ultramarathon did this and their numbers keep on rising. Brad was waering his CFA Black shirt.
Just opened, this at-times leg-pulverizing trail leads through old growth forests and across countless beaches, with spectacular views of surf, headlands, and mountains
