It was another excellent day in
Lotusland for the fourth running of the Vancouver
Fat Ass 50. With over a foot of snow followed by torrential rains in the
week leading up to the run, many questioned the very start of the event.
But as often happens in beautiful British Columbia, the skies parted, the seas
calmed and we were blessed with a clear day... perfect for a long run.
Once again, Stamp's Landing Neighborhood Pub dished out an excellent post run
spread. Never missing the opportunity to
thrill seek, Ean "Action" Jackson and Terry Lewis took their annual
Fat Ass polar bear dip in the harbor. It
wasn't a surprise finding them first in the hot tub drinking copious quantities
of beer and telling tales of past long runs. Unofficial finish times
ranged from 5:05 to 5:55.
