Live Run Report 23 August 2009

The Finish

Run Number 7 Ironbark Gully Ferny Grove.

We arrived early and saw the live hares, Stubby and Schnapps, off on their way. We then had a steady stream of new visitors along with returnee’s Fukarwe and Runabout. Slight amusement as all the visitors assumed everyone else were members.

Run started sharp at 4.06 ish with a gentle amble up the hill, and a couple of difficult checks to slow down the FRB’s of Boobarella, Fukarwe and Skiddy followed by the long climb up to the Samford road crossing.

The kids, Oils and Spank, were doing well and pushing the front of the pack but we regrouped before crossing the road.

Note for future hares crossing from the outside of the bend affords a great view in both directions, crossing from the inside is close to suicide.

Another small climb and the trail peaked, a few more checks on the down side of the hill into the old rail route. And then a well received flat section leading back to Ferny Grove, along the stream and back under the Samford road and home. On the home trail Pubic Hare, a visitor who had been holding back, made a push for the front and FRB status.

All returned together to be welcomed back by the Hares in an hour 15.

Quick circle with the visitors Pubic hare, Sticky, Boobarella, Runabout, Fuckarwe and the Gibus family of Muka Puli, Oils, Spank and Modestly Blaze out numbering the members so the members were downed to save beer.

Then into a great and varied meal, plenty to eat and far too many cup cakes, I never realised that cup cakes go so well with beer.

A few beer, a sociable group and a fire to keep the chills of a 30deg evening at bay what more could you want.

On oN to next run Skiddy
