GFH3 Thanksgiving 2012 (run 1,670)

Having to think about this almost a month after the event -- hmmm... the weather was gorgeous, and we had about 21 people and three dogs for a short run out of INDY and my house, with INDY and Hasher Flasher setting the trail along Pimmit Creek and into Arlington, for about 80/20 pavement/trail.  I set the walkers' trail, and made it a nice, near three-mile jaunt in an attempt to help folks balance caloric intake and output for the day.  Walkers went along Pimmit Creek, too, but a different section (no danger of Arlington for our walkers!), and probably had about 70/30 pavement/trail.

The great special guest star of the day was Chip Off the Old Dick's baby girl, appearing well-bundled in her trail stroller for her FIRST RUN with GFH3.

Can't really get more bundled, can you?

My recollection is that Easy Strider finished the run first, but I could be wrong.  In any event, certainly Goes Down on Trail (she typed, fingers crossed in the hope she's got the name right) and Greg would have given him some competition.

Victory of sorts.

Back at the house, in the newly-refurbished, ground-floor hashing suite, we poured mimosas and got through more beer than you'd think.  Despite the carbo-loading to come, hashers made impressive inroads into the bagels, finishing all the salmon and capers, as well as a strata or two.  We missed the Mufti, but Associate Mufti the Oral Advocate did his usual stellar job as substitute.
