It was a nervous and sweaty pack that assembled in Aberdeen for the highly anticipated Hannah Montana and Sticky run. "It'll be a 9km shiggfest", grumbled one hasher. "We're Doomed!", said another, darkly. A complex briefing was required as a lesser hash had carelessly set a similar trail in reverse the previous day.

The pack set off up and to the right through the housing estate in a loop and then turned right up the slog into to the country park. There I met AFWD and we jogged along, abandoning the virgin/visitor and followed the path deeper into the park. We arrived at the split and basically guilted each other into doing the Rambo trail. Apparently the Wimps followed the contour trail to the left for a total distance of 4.5 km.

On the dynamic duo went only to be passed at speed by a latecoming Wai-Chee Kok, who promised to call as the FRBs were not heard by those of us huffing and puffing at the back. Next we arrived at a check with many question marks but no definite direction. "OnOn!", came the call from up and the left. AFWD marked the check and so up the stairs we went, eventually arrived at a contour trail left.

After a pleasant run along the contour, paper sent us up and right into the shiggy. The T10 had done a great deal of damage so there was lots of branches, trees down and at times there seemed no definite path. The paper showed up well though so it was very enjoyable crashing through the undergrowth and figuring out the next turn. I caught up with a very lost WCK in the thickest part of the shiggy who said she would "slow down a lot" and run together until we got back on to the contour trail. An easy yomp down the hill followed, rejoining the wimps and heading down past the cemetery back to A for a distance of about 6 km.

Many thanks to the hares for a sensible and enjoyable summer run!
