Run 863 - 15 May 2005

Run 863-Round the Rio Grande Sunday 15th May 2005

Around 30 runners gathered at Gangplanks finca with the promise that he has found some virgin territory. After a long convoy to the start by the banks of the rio Grande we set off down the river. Then after 5 minutes - no more signs.

It took all our experience to find the trail again (at least 500 metres away on the other side of the river). A huge hill & then lots of undulating tracks thru some superb countryside. Long falsies - I think Gangplank set this on his bike!

Beer stop set on the river - good choice. Short second half then back to Gangplanks for the circle. Excellent marks of 8 awarded . We had a baptism, welcome to Willy Wanker.

On-on was of course in Finca Gangplanks where a fine spread of Curries and BBQ food and all the beer/wine you could all for 8 Euros.

ON ON – Dogsy
