Was pretty awesome. Snuck out of work at around 4pm and headed up to Okura. Was there in about 20mins, chucked my camel pack on, checked i had the GPS and camera and then trotted off for a quick run.

Scoped out the clearing on my way past the first time, the halfway mark for the run was a wee bit further so smashed that out and came back for a little break and some hash finding.

As always its never as easy as you think! Dam you nature. A pretty grass clearing was actually a swamp in the middle, but some careful navigating and quick side steps over rather spongy grass/ a creek, and i was there. Photos taken and me finally happy that i'd achieved a hash this year. Man and i thought it was never going to happen.

Then change into running kit, nick a GPS on my way out the door and head up to Okura Bush Scenic Reserve for a nice trail run. On my way back ill nip into the clearing and play GPS tag till i get it.

Expedition

Was pretty awesome. Snuck out of work at around 4pm and headed up to Okura. Was there in about 20mins, chucked my camel pack on, checked i had the GPS and camera and then trotted off for a quick run.

Scoped out the clearing on my way past the first time, the halfway mark for the run was a wee bit further so smashed that out and came back for a little break and some hash finding.

As always its never as easy as you think! Dam you nature. A pretty grass clearing was actually a swamp in the middle, but some careful navigating and quick side steps over rather spongy grass/ a creek, and i was there. Photos taken and me finally happy that i'd achieved a hash this year. Man and i thought it was never going to happen.

Sorry you weren't here Greenslime, maybe next time..
