Speaker Event

This session is free and you do not need to be a member of Club Fat Ass to attend. Pre- registration is required.

Join the "Fools" (Karl Jensen, Chad Hyson, Gilles Barbeau and John Machray), friend of the Fools Lucinda Iglesias, STORMY 100-mile Run RD Wendy Montgomery, folks from Kintec Footlabs, Club Fat Ass, a few friends and curious for an evening of tales from the fringe of ultrarunning: the 100-miler.

The Fools claim to be absolutely normal, yet they run 100-milers... apparently on a whim. Isn't that an oxymoron? How do they do it? Why do they do it? Could you run 100-miles, too? Why might you want to?

There will be entertaining stories about long distance trail running, some more foolish than others, that will have you itching to lace up your trail shoes. Even if you rather have a root canal than run 100 miles, you'll appreciate the humour and insights into what makes these "fools" keep on going (and going, and going....) You'll also hear why running a 100-miler is the easy part when you learn what it takes to "crew" a 100-mile runner.

What: Join our sponsor and Business Member, Kintec, and Club Fat Ass for a slideshow of outdoor adventures and a social wrap-up of the year.

Please note that this speaker event had to be canceled due to illness.  Please check back for more speaker events with Kintec later in the year.

Now that the 2007 racing season is winding down, it’s time to start planning how to make 2008 a year of personal bests!

Please join Club Fat Ass and Runner's Den for a entertaining and informative evening  November 22nd that explores the lunatic fringe of running:  The 100-miler.
