RUN REPORT by Swifty

There was a good turn out including a decent number of runners and walkers. A number of visitors (inspired/menaced by the Hares) came along, as well as Afterbirth’s daughter - Tiny Dancer (who made a very cute running team).

There was a small delay to the start as the bucket was relocated just over towards the Eveleigh rail sheds and the hash started at 6.32pm.

The trail displayed the best of urban life in Redfern, Erskineville and Darlington, as it tracked along the railway line and different laneways. The trail was mostly well marked, with only some confusion on the part of Bren Gun who luckily stumbled across the trail again just off Henderson Road.

Supersquatter led the way for the runners, with Ollie close behind, and the visitors attempted to work out the checks.

A late runners loop took them up through a more scenic part of Sydney Uni before rejoining the pack in Darlington, then around Redfern station with some street art and back to the bucket.

No complaints at all were received by the Hares (only some helpful ‘guidance’), and it seems the walkers enjoyed the trail as well.

Venerable led the circle and allowed some Harriette songs to be sung. One imagines Mongrel will address this on his return.

The Tudor Hotel (which also functions as Swifty/RD’s second lounge room) generously put us in the function space. There were chicken schnitzels aplenty. Bristle was the last to leave after promising to invite all the (female) visitors to a party on his new boat.
