Run 726 - Purim Run!
 
It was extraordinarily hot, given the season.* We met in north Tel Aviv. We wore costumes. We ran and ran. We did the Hokey Pokey.* Some elected to walk after the halfway point. We ran over the bridge to the place where the British crossed the mighty Yarkon River to vanquish the Turks in 1919. We ran some more. We had Down-downs. We drank beer. We voted on whether Goldmember was costumed as a belly-dancing cat or cow.*** It got somewhat darker and slightly cooler. We went home.
 
* It always rains on Purim, yet every year people say "Gosh, it NEVER rains on Purim".
** US version.
*** CATtle?

QUIZ NIGHT IS NEXT FRIDAY...
HASHSPACE LAUNCHES AND WE'RE INVITED...
SCROLL DOWN... DOWN... DOWN...
 
Run 725 - Paintballers Ate My Blobs
It was sunny. Huge Packer returned to our ranks. Our Hare, Deliverance, and co-hare Semen*, took us to untamed parts of Ramat Aviv Gimel. Blame for the disappearing-reappearing trail was placed alternately on paintballers and vigilant neighbors. We climbed up a big dirt mound with the aid of a handy rope. We sang "Dough, the stuff that buys me beer / Ray, the guy who pours me beer", etc. etc.. A refreshing change. We tried to run as much as possible -- Caveman sacrificed himself on the Dead Fucking Wrong altar -- but soon we were back having Down-downs, which was't bad neither. It got cooler. We went home.
*Yes, Humble Scribe got it wrong. She's called Semen because it's such a pretty name.

Run 724 - Seaman Gets Stained
 
It was windy and hazy. We met in a parking lot near Tel Baruch. There were some condoms there. We ran. There were condoms and more condoms. Condoms fluttered in the breeze, as did the dried out wet wipes dotting the dunes. Twin Peaks yelled at C3PO and R2D2 not to touch ANYTHING. We navigated between the latex remains, eventually reaching the halfway point where we sang the theme song to Gilligan's Island.* We ran the second half in more civilized areas but ended up again in Condominia.** We had Down-downs. We held the naming of Hildy, breaking in her spanky new Hash T-shirt with stuff that wasn't half as disgusting as what was lying around on the ground.***  She will henceforth be known as "Seaman" because she likes boats.****
 
* Thus presaging the arrest of Dawn Wells a few days later. Let the poor woman alone! Free Mary Ann!
** Condomania?
*** Three guesses as to what that was.
**** Other suggestions on the nautical theme: Baggy Wrinkle, Junk, Bore In the Teeth and Gunk Hole. But ships weren't uppermost in our minds at that moment.

Hash Trash RUN 723 - Directions RUN 724

Run 723 - Starts where?
It was nice. We gathered -- finally -- in an area loosely defined as "opposite the Arena Mall". Bullshit arrived, shod in new shoes, but none as new as Goldmember's. We ran merrily amongst the dunes and garbage, headed into Herzliya Pituach proper, then down towards the beach, up the cliff and into a beer stop/halfway point. Deliverance met us for the beer. We ran a bit more. We had Down-downs. We drank beer from our spanky new beer stand with a "Carlsberg" sign, courtesy of Captain Caveman.* It got chilly. We went home.
 
* and Russian Bride is going to figure out some lighting for it.

"The start is on an unnamed road - so here is how you get there:
 
Coming from Herzliya on Rt 2 towards Tel-Aviv, pass the new overpass, stay in far right hand lane. After light take sharp right towards the beach. The old Country Club will be on your right. At the first intersection turn left - you are now parallel to the beach. Pass Na'aman Towers (the colorful building on the left)  and turn Left into the Educational Complex (light). Turn left again into the first parking lot. It's a school for disabled children. The starting point is there.
 
Coming from Tel-Aviv on Rt 2, turn left at the intersection of Tel-Baruch beach. Continue to end, and bear right with the road. Pass the gas station, and the military base on the left, and turn right into the Educational Complex. Take immediate left into parking lot.
 
Coming from Rt 5 - go thru Gelilot Junction, stay on the far right hand lane, turn immediately left after the intersection and follow the instructions from up top.
