How are you, Carlos? Long time no see. It's the late Dave Johnstone blogging you back.
This seems like the right forum to give the Mount Lorne Misadventure Run a bit of a plug. There are quite a few readers here who may be interested. In fact, anyone in the Whitehorse area this time next year would do well to mark the event on their calendar, in my opinion. It will be an extremely pleasant way to spend a day.
The run takes place in the small community of Mount Lorne, circumnavigating that community to the tune of about 22K, starting and finishing at the Community Hall. It is both relaxed and well organised. The course is moderately difficult with the odd water hazard and hill to get your attention. Runners are offered water at strategic points and are monitored the entire distance by ATV.
Local runners and volunteers make outsiders feel very comfortable. An informal debriefing follows the run and everyone involved shares huge pots of chilli and apple/ rhubarb crumble. Fantastic. What could be better? Life was good that day.
