The 8th edition of the Fat Ass Trail Run will be held on November 18, 2012 at 10am.
NEW for 2012....wait and see!
Returning from 2011...Onsite Massage Therapy and chip timing!


WELCOME to the Fat Ass Trail Run! The Fat Ass as we lovingly call it began 8 years ago with 23 participants who didn't quite know what they had gotten themselves into and who fell in love with running the trails of the Batawa area. In 2011 the race had grown to 354 participants with 151 running the 7.5k, 146 running the 10k, 38 running the 17.5k and 19 running the 25k. The fastest times were 31:10, 47:00, 1:24:24 and 1:53:55 respectively. If these times have you feeling intimidated remember that everyone is welcome; fast, slow, young, old, runners and walkers and that there is an award for the last finisher. Last year the time of our last finisher was 3:10:33.
While every race has competitve runners through out who either race against each other, themselves or the clock; the Fat Ass is meant to be a fun race. We award the fastest male and female at each distance but the rest of the awards are for fun and our biggest award goes to the runner who guesses closest to their finishing time; in 2011 the best guess was 1 second off.
Thank you! In advance of race day I would like to acknowledge the incredible support of our volunteers and sponsors, and thank you for all being part of the Fat Ass Trail Run. We hope you have a great walk or run and a positive experience on the trails in Bata remembering to bring out what you take in and to respect the trails you run as the natural resource they are. Members of the Quinte FunRunners run parts or all of the course Sunday's most of the year. Check the forum at www.triandrunsports.com for times and dates. Everyone is welcome.
So if you are contemplating joining us I have one question for you.......IS YOUR ASS FAT ENOUGH?
