This week - Run Wednesday 12th August.

Next Run No 5 - Lake Manchester - It’s Ekka Day And You’ve Got Nothing To Do. August 12th 9.30 am, for a 10am start.

A bush walk beside the lake, approx 17km’s or 4 hours. Alternatively walk out and turn back when you are half tired (it’s not a flat walk). Lake Manchester is about 30 minutes or 30Km’s from Indoorroopilly, Via the Mt Crosby Road, UBD 172 Q1.

Skiddy and Sherpa where spotted doing their recce at Lake Manchester earlier this week

Bring water and a snack for the walk, hat and sunscreen. For after the walk bring a picnic and a beer. There are w.c. facilities at the dam park. I will be providing only an excuse to get off the sofa and markings at the junctions so we hopefully don’t lose any one. This is not a hash although hashers have been invited and Samford members are supporting the run.

If you are possibly attending please r.s.v.p. to peter.bloomer@gmail.com.

Hares Skidmark & Sherpa.

Last Weks Run Report - Run 4- Walton Bridge -The Gap.
Another glorious day in paradise, another great run!
The hares did a fantastic job in laying trail so that the walkers and the front running bstds came in together!
The runners trail (a distance of 8.1km measured by the GPS) was well set with lots of loops and the hare taking advantage of every hill in the area except Mt. Cootha. Grouse Sheila led the way with Whippet and Wine Wine Wine trying to keep up.
At the back were Stubby and Skidmark who were delayed several times helping little old and young ladies across the street
The walkers were treated to some undulating hills, some parks, some streets, a babbling brook, some tricky checks – and fortunately after last weeks mountain goat impersonations by Sherpa and Skidmark ... no uphill scramble to the TV towers in view the whole way round the trail!
Back at the on on a sumptuous spread was laid on by Hot Lips with real plates no less!
Several good and bad jokes were told in the circle with Headbanger leaving before she could tell us the punch line to Mango King's joke.

On On
Jerbills.
