2006 - Year 5 - Capilano Night Run

32 Starter - 32 Finishers

Only one person forgot her flashlight, nobody got lost, no attacking bears, skunks or raccoons, no weirdos hiding in bushes and no injuries to report. Just a relaxing, midsummer run through a beautiful night time canyon followed by an amazing potluck spread (with illumination this year) at the yellow beacon. Not a bag of chips to be seen. What a healthy bunch we all are. 

Thanks for all to come out and contribute.  Thanks to the loonies who supplied enough crazy talk to last a life time (do I need to mention FFR) and thanks to the runners who tackled 3 CFA events within a 24hour time frame and still had enough humph left to party.

Run Report

The dust has settled on the 2006 Fluffy Bunny Trail Run with a 100% survival rate.  21 runners ran various distances with 5 brave souls completing the famed Fluffy Bunny.  
Fluffy Bunny - 2006

The day began for some first thing at White Spot.  Many apprehensively had large breakfasts hoping they wouldn’t regret it 10 minutes into the run.  The largest breakfast award went to Ean Jackson.  Jackson, who hadn’t run since Knee Knacker, was hoping that the breakfast would give him the carbs he needed to climb the Dilly Daly Pass.

What a great evening it turned out to be.  I sure had a great time and from what I heard from runner feedback everyone had a great time.  The run, in its second year, is put on to celebrate a fellow athlete and trail runner Mary Leliveld, who passed in 2004.  Mary’s energy and passion for life inspired us all. 

Mary Leliveld's Happy Trails Run

Join us for a 10km trail run set in the beautiful Lynn Canyon Headwaters Park area of North Vancouver on terrain that ranges from flat and smooth to small hills with a few rocks. We would like to see this be a group run where we celebrate the life of a friend who can't join us anymore. Emphasis on camaraderie rather than competition. The run is followed by a potluck dinner and post-run party. 

All single-day membership fees are donated to the Mary Leliveld Triathlon - BC Bursary Fund.  Individual donations to the fund are encouraged.  For more information and registration please click here.
