Winter westerlies

Winter westerlies bared their fangs this last Sunday, and our hares took compassion on us. They kindly allowed us to wipe our feet and our noses and to come indoors for a tasty and filling meal and the circle.

This followed a brilliant, enjoyable run/walk along completely unfamiliar tracks on the slopes of Mt. Coot-tha. The trail kicked off with a real heart-starter, heading straight up the easterly face of the peak. We established base camp at the first hold check, then made a traverse along a winding ridge - and thereafter seemed to go down and up innumerable times in every possible direction, We were lucky it was such a well-marked trail - we'd have been completely lost otherwise. Isn't it great to have competent and dedicated hares?

For some reason, Payback's penchant for table-dancing in his pyjamas came up in the conversation. You'll find the horrible proof here.

Look! The Hash is allowed indoors, in the warm!

It was very cold outside:

A visitor who's joined us a few times now, on and off. If he's not careful, running with us may turn into a bit of a habit:

Terrible things can happen to you at the Samford Show if you're not careful. Strangers on the trail must have found this a bit disconcerting too:

Next run details
