Festivus Fat Ass 50K - 2010
Thanks to all that joined us for the forth annual FFA50K. A cool day and another 50K the same day kept the turnout a little smaller than last year. However, it was probably the fastest overall group of runners we've ever had. In fact, we had a new course record!
A wind from the north made the second half of the run a little cool. Starting at the Gazebo at the northern trail head runners followed the bike path south all the way to the Whittier Peninsula and used the Jerry Haddox Memorial Bench as our turn-around point.
We'll post photos as we get them. If you have photos that you'd like to share then contact us.
Since we don't keep 'official' results, the names and finish times are simply those that that are self-reported by the participant or someone else. If you see something missing or in need of correction then contact us.

First of all thanks so much for putting on this unofficial non-event! My son's and I had a really good time despite the fatigue, the wind and chilly weather (I'm the guy who had the two boys ride along). We finished "unofficially" in 4:19. Thanks again for putting this together for us crazy runners.

My husband and I were BFQs (Big Fat Quitters) at 24-ish miles. We never had so much fun DNFing.
