Somehow...somwhere, I plan to get back to running ultras this year.
Work & illness got in the way of 2012's best laid plans, so I'm hoping to get something epic, something memorable, &/or something of note done by the time the year's up. Besides the vaguery of saying that I'll "train more"...here's what's up....
1. My first goal is to improve my 10k, 1/2 Marathon, Marathon and 50k time by an average of 15%
This project I already started by running a faster 10k in October at one of the MEC Fall Classic races.
I ran a total of 1 Marathon, 2 1/2 Marathons and 1 50k in total so far (I guess I race a little less than most). The First two are a while back and the 50k included a big elevation change, so I need a big improvement for that distance to reach my overall goal.
Here I sit on the eve of the eve of another New Year, and I’ve decided to put down my Fat Ass goals for the year for the whole wide world to see. As a firmly entrenched Type B underachiever, my goals are neither lofty nor unattainable, yet I believe aiming for them over the course of the coming calendar year should serve me well.
Despite feeling more like a cyclist than a runner these days, my athletic goals for 2013 centre around running. Together with pals Wendy and Pat, I signed up for the Berlin Marathon, September 29. Ever since the Berlin wall came down, I wanted to run the Berlin marathon and run through the Brandenburg Gate.
I am happy to announce that Gottfried Grosser is the winner of the 2012 Refer a Friend contest. Gottfried talked 3 of his friends into becoming Fat Asses. They will be forever grateful
In case you wonder, old Action Jackson and Sibylle like to compete, but are not in the running...
Gottfried won a pair of Vibram Five Fingers from our business member Dave Cressman at DistanceRunWear.
I am happy to announce the winner of the 2012 Club Point Series. Since Ean and I do compete just for the fun of it, but not for prizes, Craig Moore will take away the title this year. Craig has been an early member in Club Fat Ass and is a regular at most of our events year round. He is also the host of the Vancouver 100 in early June and the Pure Satisfaction in December. Craig will win a membership refundfor 2013. Congratulations, Craig.
