Results and reports

Congratulations to all that came out for a wonderful day of camaraderie and running!  I'd like to thank Melissa and her daughter Justine for being our two 'un-official' aid stations; one at the Vancouver picnic area after the first climb and one at the LSCR.  They had chips, brownies and M & M's for those that wanted to stop long enough to partake.

36 starters today plyed the treacherous trails of the North shore, some on route some not!  The 'official' route is ~27km with 3,200 ft (975m) of elevation gained and lost.  The weather was wet most of the time with temperatures around 5-7 deg C and puddles-o-plenty on the trail.  We encountered 2 hiking entourages with 20+ members that made zigging and zagging through moving obstacles all the more challenging!

Report from Carlos. Hey Donald, nice to see you out there today. All the races today were very exciting , what a great bunch of guys and gals out there being energetic! As for the winners, lots of intrigue and surprises at the beginning with most of the favorites dropping, very weird, it made the Canadian National 100K championship a real hum dinger, very close finishes (in Ultra terms). You, Donald and Rob MacKay had a good run today, (isn't he a good pace pusher, he helped me a great deal at Chuckanut the other day, thanks man).
