Dog's House

 

Well it was a grand day altogether to be meeting at the old Dog’s house to be doing a bit of running and the like over the odd 21 km. And sure didn’t we all turn up around 3.30 for the 4 O’clock start, us all lining up nice and neatly now on the start line (or was it a curve now, to be sure to be sure) to hear where to be going. And, what with Dog counting down the seconds, be jasus, didn’t Dik Dik and your Adam lad going haring off toward the uni what with the rest of us laggering behind. Grand so, whatever yer into, like. Well, Uranus did his best to follow the boyos, and yer man Lubricated with Buggered Balls sauntered along behind, through the uni, down tha hill, past the artificial insemination (where Fuck Off stopped for a tad of advice), roight into the first water stop at Lower Kabete, manned by yer man, Dog’s man. After a wee sup of water, sure weren’t we all off again down the road, with no feckin marks, keeping a wee eye out for yer man Bumfluff and his beemer at the 8 km mark. Another tad of water and another roight, over the stepping stones through a great big dam, and sure, lo and behold, weren’t we just back where we started from after 10.5 km! Fer yer ones wit a few screws loose, sure didn’t they decide to go around again, for the fun of it like, whilst the rest of lads headed back to Dog’s (note photo finish for Maid Merry On and Waterloo) for the odd pint, a stint in the sauna, a quick shag (Boss and Socks for the record) and all that sorta stuff lads.

 

On, On!
