Mountain Goat gives the low-down on the trail
The
Run and Walk |
The walkers set off in a different direction from the runners
Mountain Goat kicks a check to show the way in case a runner turns up late
MG points out a check - and it seems a good opportunity for a photo with Fair Cop
Rear Entry returns from checking
Mad Dog and Rear Entry on trail
Into the shiggy
Oops! Who slipped and fell in the brush
For some reason this tree in the forest gets decorated and re-decorated for Christmas. Nice idea!
The hare stops to tighten his laces
We come across an old tortoise
Rear Entry poses with it

The
Taverna |
The Aris Taverna in Varibobi
Lots of meat and good value at 15 euros each
The Pork Shank (Kotsi Hirinou) and sausage (Loukaniko) were particularly delicious

The directions to the hash - for the record |
Sunday 3rd February – 11am
Run 2068-ish
Hare: Mountain Goat
Venue: Varibobi
On Inn: tba
MIS-DIRECTIONS:
From wherever you come:
Follow the road signs to Varibobi, cross the Varibobi Bridge (Flyover) the National Road to Lamia, continue on this windy road, that after a while becomes a long straight road going slightly uphill, at the junction with the road coming from Tatoi Airport turn right [watch the STOP sign!] do not turn left towards Varibobi village - and continue straight.
At the end of this road you will be forced to turn left (because straight on leads to the closed gate to the ex- King’s residence).
Follow this road for about 1 km, until you will see the usual parking spot on your right. This will be our meeting place.
If you pass the group of taverns (Thea, Panorama and Aghios Mercourios on your right hand side of the road, where the Fire Squad normally is stationed on the left side, this will mean that you have gone too far. Turn around and drive back for some meters and then turn left (as you will be coming now down the hill) into the parking lot.
The run will start here.
