NEW YEAR’S EVE RUN - the end of 2008A record 42 people turned out for the end of 2008 New Year's Eve Run. It was an epic run of hills and spills, a great way to prepare for the evening celebrations. There was a lack of shiggy due to the cold conditions, but some runners managed to slip through the ice for successful shiggy dipping. More detail will follow soon, once full recovery has occurred!
Sadly, the white dog (Dennis) managed to get thrown into the guardroom of the Officer's Mess after about fifteen minutes of the run, but was released on appeal at the end. As he had already run the hash earlier the same day, who can blame him for skiving off? |

London Marathon - Richard Made It!Deepcut H3's Mountain Rescue (Richard McAllister) participated in the London Marathon on Sunday, 13 April. Did you see prisoner number 6116?
We are delighted to announce his amazing, but naturally expected, success. Afterwards, Richard said,
"First, my sincere thanks to all those Hashers who sponsored me in the London Marathon. I managed to finish in 5 hours 17 minutes with no blisters, bruises or sore joints. However, the legs were somewhat weary and did feel a bit ‘old’ for the next 24 hours! Second, the really good news is that thanks to the generosity of all donors from UK, New Zealand, America, Canada, Spain, Lithuania, Japan, Afghanistan and Nepal the total so far has reached over £3,300 with the promise of more to come. To this total is added Gift Aid. Incidentally, the writing on the ‘T’ shirt is ‘Finisher’ and not ‘Finished’- although I really have finished running marathons!"
The anticipation was evidently as good as the finish. Photos below are before and after the event. I have to say, he looks equally chuffed before as he does after.
I gather his fame still abounds and more funds are rolling in. May it keep on going. |

The DH3 Chip Chart
Chips were first mentioned in the report on Run No 198. The first grading was not awarded until Run 204 and given as a ’B’. Thereafter grades were given in figures. The grade is a consensus taking into account texture, taste, crispiness, size, quantity and temperature.
Sad, isn’t it? |
