Run 2928 – Rimmer in Warwick
Set mostly in the picturesque Warwick Open Space woodlands, with the temperature hovering slightly above zero, 10 runners and perhaps twice as many walkers were treated to a Rimmer special, complete with drink stop – actually a West Coast drink stop with no drinks offered – and a distance measured at 6.3km in 53 minutes. No casualties reported and even Pothole managed to keep up with the pack helped by Soft Rock’s masterful trumpeting.
The circle was preceded with hors d’oeuvres (see pics). GM Pitt called up Returnees including Sir Knob, Gumby, Nanny. Griz was acknowledged (weather skills?). Pothole tried to dig himself out of a hole of his own making by passing the blame to Soft Rock. Sir Knob had a down-down in recognition of Lilyana’s Order of Australia; Ramrod presented “the boot” and Stewie drew the winning raffle ticket – won by Soft Rock, but unlucky with the Joker and had to make do with a fine bottle of wine.
RA Mastitis waxed lyrical on his NT travels with crocodile tales and a souvenir; the joke told by Stewie about a workplace with no tea breaks (or wank breaks); Soft Rock and visitor Ted were called up to represent the Germany vs Curacao soccer match fiasco; and Rimmer’s run was assessed using the ball-bag technique assisted by Jack Russell and Gumby with a score of 9.8.
Dinner was individually portioned chicken curry with rice – much appreciated on a cold night.
