Renningen

Always great to come home to Germany, especially when I get to set trail for my youngest offspring here in Stuttgart. The DST H3 turned 15 last month.

Trail was out north-west of Stuttgart, in Renningen. As you can see from the map, there was little pavement abused on this trail, nothing but shiggy. It had also rained just enough over the past couple days that several areas were quite moist. After the Fest Hash weekend here in Stuttgart, and three days of hashing and drinking, I only expected about 10 to turn up, but when we set off to run, we had 21 eager hashers taking on the adventure.

It was all mud and guts, and surprisingly, everyone finished within 10 minutes of each other . . . the runners in one group, and the walkers not far behind. Dinner was in a cozy German restaurant, and after a couple beers all was right in the world. On On to next week.Lue lisää
