2012 FAT ASS LIST & GUIDELINES

Happy Holidays, folks!

Here we go! Below is the list of participants. It seems we have more than 250 and based on previous editions, this number will reduce since some will not be able to show up for one reason or another. Also, please make sure to read the guidelines below. Very important especially for the newbie Fat Assers. These are designed to make the event orderly and fun since Clark Parade Ground is a public place. More on this later.

As for the shirt, design no. 1, the running Fat Ass Pig won! Logo is pink as usual and the color of the shirt is gray for 2012.

GUIDELINES

NATURE OF FAT ASS:  

This is not your typical race where you pay for the registration fees, run the distance you choose and get some rewards as a matter of right like medals or shirts or both after the race. Fat Ass is basically an organized run. It is pretty summed up in: NO FEES, NO AWARDS, NO AID, NO WIMPS (http://www.coolrunning.com.au/fatass/joeoakes.shtml). May we add also, NO WHINING, NO PRESSURE, NO HASSLE. And since no fee is collected to join this event, participants should think twice before comparing or complaining. Even the donation you want to make does not give rise to any demandable right as it is basically done on your own volition. Thus, all prior thoughts, concepts or comparison of what Fat Ass is to a race should be banished from one’s mind. What we can guarantee though is CAMARADERIE and FUN – none that you have experienced before BUT only if you follow the guidelines here J  

DIRECTION & LOOP: Start of the run for 36 hours is clockwise, 24-hour runners will be counterclockwise and every 6 hours, runners will have to reverse their loop. Runners joining the 12 and 6 hour runs, will be in counterclockwise and clockwise directions, respectively. In this way, all runners will be going the same direction and can pace or keep each other's company. Most importantly, this direction will have the sun behind the runners. The loop (see image below) is covered by trees on both sides. 

COURTESY TO NON-FAT ASS RUNNERS USING THE SAME LOOP: Clark Parade Ground is a public place and thus, there will be non-FAT ASS runners using the same loop during the early morning and late afternoon of Saturday and even more on the 2nd day (Sunday). These are locators, residents, non-competitive runners (who perhaps have never joined a race) and joggers who just want to exercise. Some of the runners will be with their family and children playing and/or out on a picnic at the same venue. Please be courteous when passing them. A simple "Excuse me" or "Passing" will suffice. Do not be rude. We do not want any complaint from them and risk subsequent editions of FAT ASS being banned. The sight, however, of these joggers, children, sports enthusiasts, et. al. will lend a family-feel to our event and make you run stronger, faster. At least, that was our experience. Who knows these non-FAT ASS runners might be motivated to take up running as part of their lifestyle when they see us having fun.

KEEP THE NOISE DOWN:  You, your friends and crew can hold a BBQ party (the smell of which makes every runner salivate :), have a few drinks and have fun but keep the volume low. No rowdy and unruly behavior. This is self-explanatory. While you are at it, cheer on the runners as they pass by.

KEEP THE AREA CLEAN: Used gel wraps and other garbage/litters must be disposed of properly. We should know any better. All runners and crew must clean the area where they camped after the event.

RUNNING AT NIGHT: Some sections of the loop are not well lit. Runners may want to bring their headlamps as the loop is uneven asphalt lane. Please be careful at night by watching your footing.

RUN “nickname” BIB: All runners are required to provide and create their own unique run bib with their nickname before the event. Bib is uniform in size: 10x6 inches of any material (except paper because it will dissolve in sweat). Black nickname for 36 hours Red for 24 hours, blue for 12 hours and green for 6 hours on a white background. This must be worn at all times. The reason for this is simply to carry on the tradition of FAT ASS last year and that is camaraderie. In the last 2 editions, we almost all knew each other's name. We cannot achieve this however if we are all strangers during the 3^rd edition. Again, your bib will contain your nickname in the designated color. No run bib, no run policy will be enforced.

CHECKPOINT: There will be only 1 checkpoint where Don and I and the utility boys will be present. Runners' loops will be recorded on log sheets. Log sheets will be the official records. All runners will log in their time/loop every time they reach the checkpoint. All entries will be countersigned by the organizer or authorized staff. Entries with no countersign of the organizers will not be counted. Please call the attention of the organizer or any of the volunteers on this. So it will be the primary responsibility of each runner to make their loops official and counted. No "dagdag-bawas" or padding.

MUSIC: Just like last year, a sound system blaring energetic/rock/lively/tempo songs will be played for 24-hours especially during the late evening and wee hours in the morning. If you want any song included, please email me or bring your iPod or CD during the race. Discretion will be exercised by the organizer.
*

FOOD & FLUID DONATION: Runners are encouraged to donate foods and fluids. These will be placed on a table near the checkpoint. All donations will be duly recorded and acknowledged. Please call our attention before doing so. NOTE: The foods and fluids on the table are not meant to sustain the runners during the entire duration of his chosen event. These are just "additions". For emphasis, runners will be responsible to bring their own food for himself and his crew, if any, for the entire duration of the run. Please observe this rule properly. Also, the organizer reserves the right to manage this donation as they deem fit for the benefit of the runners (don’t worry we will not hoard or take them away :)

PACER: Pacers are allowed but they are prohibited to carry anything for the runner to encourage self-sufficiency. No need to carry anything anyway since it is only a 2.2k loop.

TENT: Runners can put up their own tents if they so wish ideally in the designated area as shown in the map. Several tents however will be put up and runners can use them. Please share the same with other runners as these are limited in numbers.

RESTROOM & PORTALETS: The tennis court restroom will be opened. We are also required to provide at least two (2) portalets which will be settled/paid by the runners during the event. Some have already pledged monetary support. Do we need to tell the guys not to pee beside a tree or anywhere else for that matter? Please use the restroom and portapotties properly.

BREAK: Runners can always take a break and even sleep but should bring their own sleeping mat, etc. Organizers do not mind how you spend your breaks. You can watch a movie, play casino (others did this!), crosstrain like biking, swimming, shop at the duty free stores, etc.  We do not mind at all. It is your call.  Runners who take a break and leave the designated loop will have to return to the same spot before proceeding again. If your break will take longer as usual, please advise the organizer accordingly.

PARKING LOT: The designated parking lot is the only area where all runners and their respective crew should park their own vehicles which is very convenient for runners. This is just a few feet away from the checkpoint.

GEAR: It is cold during the night and early morning in January… at least in Clark. So plan accordingly.

CERTIFICATE: This will be on best-effort basis. So no promises. Certificates may be given at the end of the event on 08 January 2011 after the awarding. 

LAST LOOP BEFORE CUT-OFF TIME: The last completed loop before the cut-off time for each category will be considered as the official recorded loop. Uncompleted loop will not be counted.

WAIVER: As standard in all Fat Ass runs of this nature, all participants will sign a waiver before running. Runners are advised to come at least 30 minutes before their chosen event to register and sign the waiver. No waiver, no run policy will be imposed.

DRINKING BOTTLES, CUPS, ETC: To avoid unnecessary trash during the event, runners will have to bring their own bottles, cups (for coffee), etc. and use them for refill. We have seen too many plastic litters (cups, bottles) during and after running events. It is time to help the environment.

RUNNING CLUBS' BANNERS/TARPAULINS: Running clubs or groups whose members are joining the event may hoist their banners near the checkpoint for promotional purposes.  Please coordinate with the organizer before doing this.  Banners of corporate sponsors will have to be approved by race organizers.

COMMEMORATIVE SHIRT: More details later on how to order.

MONETARY DONATION FOR UTILITY PERSONNEL: Please feel free to donate cash for our at least two (2) hired utility boys. Just like the last 2 editions, we pooled our resources just so we could pay them justly as they were up the whole 24 hours and beyond. It made our jobs easier and the runners happier. Please note that they would be away from their families and in essence, working. Their tasks are to clean the area during and after the event, run some errands, bring back the site into its original condition which includes dismantling what needs to be dismantled, etc.  Thus, it is only just and proper that they should be reasonably paid. Names of donor will be duly acknowledged and again, organizer reserves the right to manage this donation as they deem fit. Please note that from your donation, we will have to pay as well the tents, chair, etc.

So see you soon!

Cheers,

Jon and Don
