Running Since 1969!
Run 2865 Report: 3rd February – 33 Paquita St, Forde
Hare: Kandoo
The pack gathered from near and far for Kandoo’s run. And what a pack it was. There was discussion whether “Whiteout” was on shift, but was all agree that she was customarily late.
The pack set off on the bike path towards Gundaroo. Richard De Turd was leading the way followed by Paparazzi. A few two ways and we found ourselves in Bonner.
No hills he said, who believes a hasher anyway. A few Roos feeding wondering what was going on. Trail again crossed Mulligans Flat road and back into Forde. Trail found and off we trotted when we realised we weren’t on? Back to the last marking and it back tracked then went to overlap the trail. At this point Greasy was lost in action presumably still looking for trail. The walkers caught up and off we went again.
Finally made it back to the house where low and behold sausages we on the menu. Also Whiteout decided to show her face. Excellent evening had by all.

Run 2864 Report: 27th January – 6 Drysdale Cct, Kambah
Hare: Haemoroyd
Hot, Hot, Hot. The RA needs to retard there climate warming a tad.
The Hare promised no hills, no bitchumen, no water, no shade. For this reason everyone decided to walk. Firstly up then around, across the dam over the hill and far away and a short cut back. The only honest statement was shade.
When the pack returned to the tubs, it was even too hot for Poppy to attend so the scraps didn't have to be divided as much. The 1600hrs start meant we were having a cold one 2 hours before other Hashers.
Win win!

Run 2863 Report: 20th January – Fadden Pines, Fadden
Hare: Hands Full
The day started off beautiful in the morning, which turned into severe weather warning which turned into hail stones the size of golf balls which turned into clear skies. What a fantastic job by the RA. The real test will be 3 in a row.
The first thing Hands Full did right was to set the run just before said event. The second thing he did right was to set it at a BBQ site. The third was to cook food. It can only go downhill from there.
We set off in an Easterly direction, southerly, west, north, you name it. Sometimes the pack was too busy nattering to find out they were off trail for ages, this helped keep us together on top of the checks.
As we returned to the tubs, burgers were all ready for consumption, which we did. The rest is history.

Run 2861 Report: 6th January – BBQs at Eddison Park, Woden
Hare: Dingles
On a less smoke filled day the pack headed in a SE direction towards the hi end of town, when suddenly out of nowhere the Gods opened up.
There was no shortcut back to the tubs so the drowned rats finally returned to abuse the RA. The bitch was delivering a pensioner back from the coast. Yes that could be anyone of us. Back to normality of conversation whatever that may mean, the tucker was cooked.
ONEHANDED, was doing showing skills no one has ever seen. It went something like this. Holding the dog (whilst being humped by Musty), drinking, talking, collecting food from the BBQ, loading said food on bread then eating said food without spilling a drop or stop talking!!!!!!
What skill.

Run Report: 16th December – BBQs behind War Memorial, Treloar Cres, Campbell
Hare: Too Keen
It was an all-male, hound-less, Pack for this Run, set by Too Keen.
She evoked memories from then past (ie Sweeper) when she presented Handover with a stick of chalk. “What do you want me to do with this?” asked Handover. I didn’t hear her response, but Handover blushed. He was still on a high from a strong coffee earlier in the day, a dastardly act that would have earned him a down down (if we awarded them).
Off went the not-too-keen Pack, Handover in the rear. We supposed that his job was to mark the checks for any late-comers (ie Whiteout). Marking flour checks on dirt with a stick of chalk was his problem. Uphill to start with, several of the Pack exclaiming that already they were knackered. But we persevered and, eventually, reached the more solid, and lower, ground of Campbell. Wending and weaving our way through the maze of streets eventually brought us back to where we had started all that time and all those kilometres earlier.
Handover’s efforts at check-marking had been in vain, for Whiteout was really late this time, arriving just as the Pack zoomed into the tubs.
We enjoyed chicken and various salad dishes in rolls and tried to ignore the dropping temperature. This scribe was first to leave so what went on afterwards must be kept a secret.

Run Report: 9th December – Run Site 1, BBQs on Lady Denman Drive (Opp Zoo)
Hare: Too Keen
It was the day full of surprises. First, we had an alternative Hare in Too Keen (Haemoroyd was gallantly fighting fires instead); Second, we had a Virgin, Trifecta who moved all the way from Brisbane (we have warned him about Winter); Third, was a visit from Horse.
With no Trail set, we decided on a Live Trail up to the Arboretum. We went up the zig-zag path. Some were um ...keen and actually zigged and zagged, while the more sensible among us went straight up. Getting to the main building some chose to have a go on the Pod Playground. We went the rest of the way to the top of Dairy Farmers Hill, where we had a lovely view of the surrounding smoke. From there we headed straight down back to the BBQs.
Fourth, Too Keen announced the BBQs had no gas left. Fifth, Horse happened to have a portable stove. Sixth, Horse also had a stainless steel clip board to cook the chicken burgers and bacon on. Delicious.
