Club Fat Ass: could there be a more attention-grabbing name for something?

"It's all about fun and camaraderie," says North Shore resident Ean Jackson, referring to the international club based in the Lower Mainland whose members are self-described as "promoters of oddball endurance events and a healthy outdoor lifestyle."

Added Jackson: "It's putting the fun into running."
