The "Villages Beginning With H" route was March 2006's Last Big One.It was 20 miles that time, but has since been corrupted to become a quality-not-quantity (my running motto) 12.5 miles of villages (red shortcut), only some of which have an H.
However, Ed, as is usually the case, had his own ideas about the route, the pace and what might constitute a biomechanically efficient running style. I guess the same style worked well for Morcombe and Wise, and the mud splatter goes out sideways like a boat's wake rather than back and up like a bicycle back wheel. So a loop featuring Barton, Haslingfield and Harlton (including a tour of the clunch pit) made it 16.5 miles.

The best bit of the H-villages was, as with most running; stopping. Stopping was all the better as Sarah had made a really big pan of Leek and Spud soup.
Without the soup I'd never have made the other endurance event of the day:
Subject: [radc] Brad Memorial Hash Crawl (today!)
I expect Brad will be too pissed to answer his mobile by 3pm, so here's my number: **** *** ***
To recap, The Brad Memorial Hash Crawl:
-1pm start at Rad
-Invitees: All hashers, non-hashers, rowers, bar regulars, irregulars, Aussies, women of questionable virtue, and bar keepers. Canadians need not apply.
-Point: To usher Brad gracefully (but firmly) out of Britain
-Theme: Make Brad cry
-Motto: Get back, get back, get back to where you once belonged
Cheers,
Bloody Barbie
To be a top Marahasher you need to carefully balance training, nutrition and recreation.
