The person of female gender that ate Lady of the Lamp

Here it is in its unexpurgated form, the run that ate Stick Insect, in his Lady of the Lamp guise.

The cause was a particularly catty combination of a 360 and an F. Just as the pack were expecting a pleasant little trot home along the valley between Kao Wong and Kao Lam, the hare instead decided to send them over Kao Lam. But by the time the real trail had been found, Sticky had discovered paper from earlier in the run and was off on a second circuit when the awful truth dawned on him, at which point he blundered off the trail and into suburban Chana before eventually retracing his steps and heading for the safety of the valley, where Inchdick and Khai Jeow were on hand to rescue him just as dark was falling.

Off T recorded the run at 7.3k but that probably only proved how much short-cutting he had done. Sanitized versions of the hare's track suggest 8k was probably nearer the mark which took the first runners home on paper about 1 hour and 24 mins, with the purists who actually followed the whole trail including the final F taking about 5 minutes longer.

And all that damage wrought by one solitary person of female gender and her three trusty dogs of female gender who this weekend completed FOUR runs against everyone else's two as they were hares as well as hounds for both the SH3 and HH3 runs.

Who'd be a misogynist eh?
