Run 2483 – Slippy Thong Hosts The Beer Mile

October 5, 2026 The Scribe

Hares: Slippy Thong

Location: Prestwick Pond Terrace SE

No Beer Gets Left Behind

The Beginning

We were pleased when Slippy Thong volunteered to set trail in the “Beer Mile” format. Essentially, you run in circles and consume a beer at regular interval. How very Hash Friendly!

Coincidently, the pond that adorns the back yard of Slippy’ s palace is exactly 1.6 km (one mile to those that speak the other dialect). The game was on! Run as many laps as you chose, and receive a beer for each lap!

There are some niggling rules for the true Beer Mile cult. Some of which include:

A beer mile is a race where competitors drink four 12-ounce beers and run four 400-meter laps around a standard running track in alternating order.

The Basic Format

Structure: Drink a beer, run a lap, drink a beer, run a lap, drink a beer, run a lap, drink a beer, run a lap, and finish.
Distance: Four laps on a standard 400-meter track equal one full mile.
Equality: Both men and women must consume four beers and run four laps.

The Hash used their interpretation of these guidelines to run as many “one mile” laps as they chose.

Nevertheless, it was a fun format that Slippy Thong set up for the hash to enjoy.

The starting point was her backyard. Parking, as usual, was a challenge given the high density of the neighbourhood and the limited number of visitor spots.

The hash can be a smart bunch when challenged, so they were able to overcome the parking challenge.

A nice evening to start. This sunset shorty after 7:00 pm, the veil of twilight quickly enveloped the run with some nice sunset of offset the impending darkness.

The group assembled and prepared for the run. Slippy Thong had prepared many yummy snacks for the participants where were greatly appreciated!

There was much relaxing and chatting prior to the run as the pack enjoyed the end of the daylight.

It was time to circle up. Insane Bolt gave the instruction to form something like a circle along the pathway behind Slippy’s place.

Insane Bolt ran through the announcements and introductions.

The hares were was called into the circle to go over the rules and marks for the run.

After some discussion and confusion, the group had to decide which direction to run the circle.

The group started with a refreshment and then took off to follow the circle.

The Trail

The group found their own pace. The runners ran fast and the walkers walked. If you wanted distance, choose multiple laps! Walkers figured out that a lap or two were sufficient.

Slippy was very creative with signage. Over and above the normal inspirational marks!

A few pictures were taken in the diminishing sunlight as the twilight took over the balance of the evening.

PMS spotted way ahead of the pack….Fast running!

Eventually, the run was over. Those who wanted distance ran more than the walkers. A fine trail which was well executed by Slippy Thong.

We then congregated in the back yard and prepared for the down downs.

Apparently, Strap On Crampon was concerned about being “called out” for having new shoes. As you can see from the circle picture, these shoes look factory fresh.

This fear provoked some strange behavior in an attempt to scuff up these look like new shoes…..

Newness of my shoes is in the eyes of the beholder

With all the runners accounted for, it was time to move into the down downs/

Tighty Whitey was the Religious Advisor for the evening. He had a program which he put together mostly from his own thoughts and imagination.

First to the hare, Slippy Thong for putting on this fun event. I am sure that many personal bests were achieved.

Thanks for setting up the epic run challenge

Evidence of Busy Beavers in Fish Creek Provincial Park

The Beginning

Tighty Whitey set trail in late September the from Marshall Springs parking lot of Fish Creek Park. Good maps were necessary to ensure that we knew how to get there, as it was on the South side of Fish Creek with access from Evergreen SW.

Darkness is becoming a thing at this time of year, so headlights were recommended. The group assembled at the start point and basked in the last rays of sunshine prior to the arrival of twilight.

Hashers arriving for the start of the run

The group prepared for the run and waited patiently for the run to start, and formed something that looks like a circle.

Insane Bolt ran the circle and went through the announcements and introductions.

The hare was called into the circle to describe the marks for the evening trail.

With the marks described, the pack was released into the wilderness to experience the transition into darkness.

The Trail

Out of the parking lot, we found marks leading to a long downhill descent into the depth of Fish Creek.

Post playground viewpoints. The Fish Creek valley framed by the mountains in the distance.

Eventually, the parking lot was found and suitable refreshments were enjoyed.

Outside down down’s were planned. AS such, many chairs appeared to secure our portion of the parking lot.

The group prepared for the down down’s while enjoying suitable refreshments and marshmellow’s.

The Down Downs

Booty Camp was the Religious Advisor for the evening. She made notes of any transgressions on the run, and prepared to deliver her story!

A choir was selected. Slippy Thong and Insane Bolt stepped up to sing us the songs.

First up for down down’s was Skewbic Hair, who was called out for promoting “non hash” events in the circle, by promoting the Ski Calgary Group Halloween Social on October 29 2026.

Booty Camp then called up a series of offenders to be rewarded with down downs for their behavior.

As the evening program wound down, it was time to find a Religious Advisor for the next week. Thankfully Tighty Whitey accepted the challenge and was rewarded with a down down, and we were declared “on the piss”.

The group headed out of the Marshall Springs parking lot to find Rip’s Pub in Millrise for the continued celebration.

Yummy Kippers (and Erections)

The Beginning

The annual Yummy Kippers run, is a tradition of the Calgary hash. Hardly and Twisty have organized this for a very long time. The run precedes the MisManagement Erections where the group refreshes the management team.

The run was set from Big Al’s Bar & Grill in the neighbourhood of Southview, which is very close to Forest Lawn. This neighbourhood has some history and is undergoing a level of gentrification. Bordering International Avenue, it is quite an eclectic part of town.

The group arrived in the parking lot on this warm evening. The sun was setting as a reminder that we are now in fall and the light in the evening is getting thin.

Congregating in the shadows as the sun packs it in

Insane Bolt called the circle to order, and the group formed something that sort of looked like a circle.

Insane Bolt went through the formalities with announcements and introduction, plus enjoying some yummy fish crackers .

With the munching complete, the hares were called into the circle to describe the marks for the run. The marks are special, as the shape of a fish is prominent.

The pack was released to find the marks, and to catch the last rays of sun as dusk was settling in.

The Run

Out of the parking lot, the pack headed south and found the marks indicating that they were on trail.

The refreshments were tasty and the group got busy enjoying the twilight evening outdoors.

A keen hasher observed that were were on Ash Crescent. One letter away from Hash Crescent. Insane Bolt decided this was something that needed to change.

Back to the bar, checking out the fancy features of the neighbourhood.

Back to the bar, the group settled in to ordering food and beer and prepared for the down downs and the Erections.

The Down Downs

As we attempted to get organized, beer was ordered and the beer wenches got busy getting things together. It was finally time to get the down downs started.

Hump the Shark was the Religious Advisor (RA) for the evening. He appointed the choir of Swollen Member and Rashy Bush.

The hares were called up for a down down. A fine trail with Yummy Kippurs for snacks.

PMS wanted to show off her matching fashion, so she was invited up for a fashion down down.

With the down downs done, it was time to move onto the next order of business, the Erections of the new MisManagement team for next year.

Erections

A difficult process as the mismanagers are a fickle bunch, who know the rules. Find your replacement of your are doing this for another year.

Insane Bolt ran the erections. A somber introspective exercise which delivered the slate of new MisManagement for 2026-2027 fiscal year.

The result of this exercise is that we have a fresh MisManagement team to lead the hash forward into the next year. Come out to find out what the new team looks like!

A fine trail of close to 5 km through the wilds of Southview. So close to Dover and Forest Lawn and in the vibe of International Avenue. A fun time was had by both the runners and the walkers.

Shoe Wash in Fish Creek

The Beginning

As we are now past labour day, who knows what the weather will be like. It could be summer or winter, sunny or raining, but the darkness is starting to appear near the end of the run.

Headlights start to become a thing at this time of year, so remember that. Hot Cheeks decided it time to introduce Swollen Member to the art of haring a run. These are skills that he can use in all aspects of his happy life.

After a bit of adjusting the start location, Local 403 Pub in Canyon Meadows SW was selected as the start location. Access to Fish Creek was important for the success of this run.

The group arrived at the pub and prepared for the fine trail that had been planned for them to follow.

It was time to head out to the parking lot circle up. A good turnout of over 20 hashers was encouraging to see.

Insane Bolt ran the circle and went through the announcements and introductions.

The hares were called into the circle to describe the marks.

The pack was released to find the trail.

The Trail

Leaving the parking lot, the pack spread out to find the marks for true trail. A few false trails were explored prior to finding the good marks. Apparently, some of the marks were a little thin from the recent rain, making finding the trail a bit more challenging.

After enjoying the refreshments and the munchies, the pack headed into the pub to prepare for the down down’s, and some sort of spinning wheel distraction.

You could get sucked into this distraction

The group settled into the pub and figured out that they could get a fantastic deal on a hamburger, with a full pint beer, and the opportunity to spin the wheel, and delay the start of the down downs.

Down Down’s

Eventually, the thrill of the spinning wheel was over. The patient Religious Advisor, Skewbic Hair, now had the attention of the group.

A choir of Tighty Whitey and Scissor Sister was chosen and the program began.

Labour Day Classic …. Who Knew?

The Beginning

Already Labour Day! Where has the summer gone? An afternoon run was offered by Booty Camp and Snow Blower to mark this special day. Of note, there is some sort of football game on Labour Day which is important to the football following hashers.

A brilliant bit or organization enabled the hashers and the football hashers to both be happy!

Timing was important. As such, a sharp 2:00 pm run start time was enforced. This might have created a small problem for the 2:05 arrivers, but that was all sorted.

A circle happened on the front lawn of the hosts house, and Camshaft went through the announcements and introductions.

The hare was called into the circle and the marks were described to the pack.

The pack was released to find the marks.

The Trail

The pack was rewarded with finding marks as they ventured off on the pathways. They are a couple of key bridges that come into play in the neighbourhood. Marks were present.

The walkers formed a line and played follow the leader as Booty Camp lead them to a secret rendez-vous.

A secret destination was revealed for the regroup. With the football game thing happening, there was a “tailgating” opportunity that was enjoyed by the group.

Post tailgating, the pack was released. Some hung around to go to the football game, while others set off to find the trail back to the start. There was a long trail and a short trail. Both ended up at the same place.

After suitable refreshment, it was back to the house for indoor down down’s.

The group settled down waiting for the down down’s to begin.

Down Down’s

Insane Bolt was able to conduct the down down’s. He got prepared and the beverages were made ready.

Insane Bolt started by selecting a choir. The combined efforts of Princess Monkey Spanker and Abandoned Pussy were chosen to select the songs.

The down down’s started with the hares, followed by a selection of other offenders.

With the formal ceremonies complete, the group dispersed. Apparently there was some sort of fast loud airplane thing happening at the football game.

With the fun an frolic complete, the crowd dispersed to pay attention the the football game. This did not end well for the home team….

Hashers spotted at Sandy Beach Park!

The Beginning

We were pleased that Shakesbeer volunteered to set trail on short notice. He selected Sandy Beach SW as a starting point. A surprising amount of wilderness and difficult trails are near by, plus the Elbow River!

The group assembled in the recently renovated parking lot and prepared for the circle to be called. Apparently there were some pre run novelties in the form of Jello and something in a small cup.

There was a small selection of hashers that were late to the circle. Apparently an unexpected power failure meant access denied to her car. A rescue mission was initiated. As such, early picture taking of the circle was handled by Dastardly.

With the circle called, the group assembled in something that looked like a circle.

A bit of a tilt, but Camshaft held his ground

After the interruption subsided, the hare was called into the circle to describe the marks for the trail.

With the marks describe, the pack was released to find the trail.

The Trail

From the parking lot, the pack started looking for marks. There was some confusion as the which way was out, as perhaps the end of trail marks were found first.

All was sorted out eventually as the pack disappeared into the dense brush by the Elbow River.

The trail continued through dense brush with many trees across the pathway that required some climbing to get over.

Then the regroup was found and everyone was pleased.

The lawn chairs came out and the group took over a portion of the parking lot.

Such a happy group patiently waiting for the down down’s to begin.

The beverages were prepared and the Religious Advisor, Strap On Crampon, prepared here program in here very small notebook.

With all the preliminaries done, it was show time. Strap On donned a ceremonial sarong and led the down down’s from the middle of the circle.

Strap On selected a choir of Dastardly, Lazy Cummer and Rashy Bush. A mostly sitting choir was revved up to sing themselves a song.

First off was the hare, who received a down down for setting a great trail.

Remembering Whale Wanker!

The Beginning

With the recent passing of our veteran Calgary Hash House Harrier, Whale Wanker (Tom Wheeler), a tribute run was proposed to coincide with his birthday.

King Shit and On In volunteered to set trail starting from a known location on Kensington Road, Pizza Bob’s. The neighbourhood has hosted many hash runs in the past and was close to Whale Wanker’s was living.

A significant turn out of hashers arrived at Pizza Bob’s and the parking lot filled up with runners (and walkers).

Once parking was sorted out, the group got larger as more hashers arrived.

The group was invited to circle up by Camshaft, who went through the announcements and introductions.

The hares were called into the circle to described the marks.

With the description complete, the pack was released to find the trail.

We were pleased when Mr. PeeeeeNut volunteered to set trail. He chose an obscure starting point referred to as the Silver Springs Boardwalk. With exacting precision, google maps pointed to a parking lot with limited spaces.

The pack arrived and Dastardly was prepared with Jello shots. The weather was good and a good number of hashers showed up.

The group started to form something like an elongated oval that could pass for a stretchy circle.

Camshaft called the circle to order and went through the announcements and introductions.

The hare was called into the circle to describe the marks.

With the marks described, the pack was released to find the marks for the true trail.

Apparently Hardly and Scoobie did something….

To finish off, it was time to convince someone to be the RA for next week. With his half yard done, Camshaft was receptive and said he would do it.

Down down for the RA’s. this week and next week!

We were pleased that Pyro stepped up the hare another trail in August. Starting from the parking lot of the 12 Mile Coolee Natural Area, providing great access to the hills and pathways close by.

The evening of the run was cool and smokey. A group of intrepid hashers showed up for the entertainment that Pyro had prepared.

The pack found a place to park and mingled before the circle was called.

Hump the Shark imagined the crimes, stories and offences that deserved a down down. Starting with the hare, who , once again, set a fine trail for the hash to follow!

A series of infractions and observations were duly rewarded with down down’s.

The Beginning

You know you will have an entertaining trail with Abandoned Pussy as the Hare. She knows the intricacies of the pathway network in Fish Creek and knows what hashers like.

Voltier’s Flats at the foot of Elbow Drive was the starting location. In addition they have picnic areas suitable for the down down cerimonies.

The group arrived to find parking and prepare for the run. The weather was good and we had some out of town visitors.

Apparently the scribe and Religious Advisor were late to the circle, so he had to rely on the kindness of others for the photos of the opening circle.

Picture this full of hashers – the down down location dream

Someone went through the introductions and announcements prior to calling the hare into the circle.

AP was called into the circle and explained the marks to the pack. With all explained, the pack was released to find the trail.

The Trail

The pack followed marks up hill to the neighbourhood of Canyon Meadows. Obviously, some uphill elevation gain to enjoy the pathways that await at the top of the hill.

The pack found the regroup vehicle and decided, much to chagrin of the hare, that down down’s would not be at the picnic tables, but rather in the parking lot. Apparently the exertion of moving the cooler was overwhelming for some.

The group sorted out their chairs and beverages, and relaxed in anticipation of the start of the down down’s.

Why are we waiting? Apparently a couple of Harriettes were missing. Choosing to avoid the creek crossing, a long and convoluted route back to the start was required. So both Boob Check and Ure-in-Trouble were DFL, causing a delay in the starting of the down down’s.

With the group assembled, it was time for the down down’s to commence.

Down Down’s

Skewbic Hair was the Religious Advisor for the evening. Arriving late to the circle, he ad to catch up to the pack and rely on other for some tales.

With the beverages prepared by the beer meister, time to get this show on the road.

Firstly, a choir was selected. Sticky Lips and Shakesbeer were delighted to be selected and sang themselves a song.

Then we had to controversial shunning of the down down location that the hare was expecting. A Hat Shit transfer opportunity from King Shit to On In.

Now, time to find an RA for next week. With some level of cajoling, Lazy Cummer is up to the task. As such, it was time to down down the RA and next weeks RA.

Down down for the RA, this week and next!

With all done, the pack was declared “on the piss”. A nice evening to hand around and continue to enjoy the parkin lot ambiance.
