Daylight Savings Time Ends Darkness!

The Beginning

The clocks have shifted and we now have more daylight in the evening. That hour of lost sleep is eventually forgotten and we bask in the glow of a starting circle in the light.

OPP and Lazy Cummer volunteered to set trail. A good turn out for a run in the Marda Loop neighbourhood was anticipating an interesting run.

The group assembled inside the Marda Loop Brewing Company, and were called out to form a circle in the back parking lot.

PMS lead the circle as the group got organized.

PMS went through the announcement and introductions, then called the hares to the circle to explain the marks for the trail.

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

The Trail

A few false trails were discovered as the pack got their bearings and found the true trail marks. Through the neighbourhood of Marda Loop and the mud and moisture from the recent snow, the trail revealed itself.

The scribe was in the walkers group due to skiing over exertion. The walkers had a fine time exploring the development and construction occurring in the this part of town!

My inside sources suggest that the runners had a fun time finding the trail, and playing in any parks they could find.

The walkers were able to find the regroup in the parking lot of the brewery. Apparently, the runners had a significant amount of trail to run, and were delayed in arriving for refreshments.

Eventually, once darkness had fallen, the balance of the group appeared to regale us with their conquest of the epically long trail. This shot is indicative of the level of darkness when the balance of the pack arrived.

The dark side of the regroup

The group gathered on the patio of the Marda Loop Brewing Company to order beer and food prior to the down down’s.

Eventually, Booty Camp was ready for the down down ceremonies.

The Down Down’s

Religious Advisor Booty Camp took control of the down downs and appointed a choir of Roaring Nancy.

Pay Attention
How would?

Booty Camp thanked the hares for setting trail and then proceeded to come forward with a series of lies, accusations and crimes committed during the run.

Hares!

With the down down’s done, the group engaged in the chatting and socializing until it was time to leave.

Trail Summary

Some say this trail was 9 km when all done. Not sure how the sidewalk marks made it through the surprise snowfall.

The walkers were more straightforward with a big loop of close to 4 km.

Run

Run 2363 – 2 Girls, 1 Hash Shit

Hares:  Liquor Lots and OPP

Location: Weaselhead Natural Area – North Glenmore Park

6615 37 Street SW, Calgary, AB T3E 5M9

RA:  Hump the Shark

Attendance: 23

Regroup in Sight, Over there!

The Beginning

Liquor Lots and OPP volunteered to set the run for the week. They chose the Weaselhead Natural Area in the SW by the reservoir. An area notorious for critters, mud, water, dense forest, and steep trails. The perfect location for a hash run.

Both OPP and LL did their due diligence to ensure that the hash would be entertained by the trail they had chosen.

Steep terrain coupled with high water levels provided shiggy galore. We were warned to bring dry shoes and socks to change into after the run.

The other problem we had to deal with is the onset of darkness. This time of year sucks as each day is materially shorter than the day before. Blinding sun at the start of the run, and post sunset conditions at the end of the trail.

Hashers began to gather in the parking lot of North Glenmore Park Weaselhead access. A reasonable turn out of 23 intrepid souls ready to go hashing.

PMS called the circle to order and we went through the announcements and introductions.

Who eliminated my shadow?

The hares in the circle explained the chalk marks and flour marks that marked the trail.

This marks should do it.
In addition there is some enormous poo dumps on trail. Something large is out there.

Liquor Lots raised her arm and pointed in some general direction and the pack was released.

The Trail

From the parking lot, some choices on which pathways to take. We have been sucked into the huge steep climb down to the water in the past. We needed to be sure. The sun was blinding.

Very sunny to start
Great views
Some say that this was steep
See that bridge down there? That is where you are headed.

Many natural sights were observed on trail. Here is a selection of some of the experience that was had by the group.

As the sun set, and twilight started to take over, we had some climbing to do before the end of the trail.

All good runs must come to and end. We set up the down down circle in the parking lot in anticipation of regroup and down down refreshments.

Regroup and Down Down’s

It was planned to be parking lot down down’s, so bring your own chair.

Getting ready for down downs

A bit of a delay before the keys for the regroup vehicle appeared. This was acknowledged with a down down later in the program.

Hump the Shark was the religious advisor, by unanimous consideration. He selected King Shit and Insane Bolt as choir. Photographic quality deteriorates as the sun goes down. People move way too quickly in the darkness.

The program was delivered with humour, panache and pace. A quick succession of crimes and punishments were delivered to the offending hashers.

In the dark, Hump the Shark declared us “on the piss”. Limited interest in off to the bar for more celebration, so an abbreviated version was conducted in the parking lot in the dark.

Trail Summary

A fine trail of somewhere between 5 km and 6 km. Appreciate the effort to set the wilderness trails, which become more difficult as the dark season encroaches.
