The asshole is known for setting good runs on hashes where he isn’t the GM, so surely today would be fantastic? It seems he thought he was the GM and so was somewhat unimaginative in terms of the trail! Perhaps that’s harsh – nobody else would imagine this run with the double cross of the dual carriage highway – a task that Horny Monkey struggles with himself!
Anyway, it was Huay Tung Thao – we were set off in the opposite direction from the mountains and the beautiful trails that make the area so hash welcome. Instead we were sent straight back to the road. Horny made us run further on the road with constant skiddy sticks. Paralleling the road we hit another skiddy stick and then a circle check. Everyone was desperate to hit the hills and find a way back to the right, but sadly we were to be disappointed again. The only one out of their mind to cross the canal and the dual carriage way with rush hour traffic was Skid Mark. Perhaps it is the kind of check he’d set, or actually it turns out the hare had given him some insight.
Being a long way in the wrong direction it took some time to get back with the pack as they came back from yet another set of skiddy sticks. Either the hashers or the hares had no idea where we were going, but it was skiddy sticks to the max. Again I was chasing the pack and we went into someone’s extensive backyard and proceeded to dance around in circles around lakes. As we added 3km over a 500m radius Frozen Dick has aspirations of FRB status and set off at a run to cut the corner. We had more and more skiddy sticks, with Brown Finger the only one with energy or motivation to exert the energy in the wrong direction.
Up over a fence and we were On-In with Graven Image determined to come in alongside me. The whole run was a fast pace, but not much over 5k – we could have just run around the track!
