The Beginning

Another run in the middle deep south is always a good time. Those that live in the north get to experience busy roads, traffic and weather! However, what is important is that a trail was set by Hump the Shark in parts of town that we are getting to know better.

The neighbourhood of Douglas Glen SE is not normally a destination, unless you live there. Hump the Shark has the privilege of employment in the area, as such, he has been doing some reconnoitering for the benefit of the group.

The starting location of Penny Black’s Kitchen & Bar is been used by Hump before, so let’s give it another go and see if they like our business.

With relatively warm weather, the pack arrived at Penny Black’s and settled in for their pre-run preparations and socializing.

Word was given by the Hashmaster to circle up outside, and the pack complied.

Not looking happy outside, but I am sure they are smiling inside

Camshaft went through the announcement and introductions, then Hump the Shark was welcome into the circle to describe the marks.

With the marks, you will find all you need to find!

With the instructions complete, it was time to release the hounds to spread out and find the marks. The walkers held back so they could make their own plans.

The Trail

Out from the parking lot, through some industrial sites, 24 Street SE into Douglas Glen neighbourhood. With a few checks to keep the pack confused, the trail continued following sidewalks until it spilled out into Fish Creek Park. Into Quarry Park, some playground opportunities were enjoyed.

A park appeared and there was much playing!

Apparently, the trail ended at the regroup where tasty beverages were enjoyed.

I suspect there was some parking lot regroup action prior to the pack returning to the pub for the down down’s.

The Down Down’s

The group settled into the pub to sort out seating, beer and food. It looks like a welcoming place for thirsty hashers!

Mmmm Lady Fingers tries her serious look for the camera!

The Religious Advisor for the evening appears to be Stool Stuffer. He created material to delivery to the supportive group. Choir looks like Lying Sack of Shit and Shakesbeer.

Dastardly and PMS – looks like the new hash shit is being redistributed!

Looking like a beer makes me happy! People like beer, so they will like me!

Awards – Hot Cheeks (550), OPP (100) and Lazy Cummer (100)

Not exactly sure how this all went down as I was elsewhere and missed the celebrations. After down down’s completed, we were declared “on the piss”

Trail Summary

It looks like 8 km of fine trail were enjoyed by the runners. A mixture of urban and parkland made for a great trail. Thank Hump the Shark for setting a fine trail, and he is welcome to set more trails in the near future!
