This was a route that offered hills\, more hills\, and then a few extra just in case anyone still had functioning cal ves. It felt like a subtle (Ed. yes\, the sort of subtlety that keeps bash ing you over the head in case you still don't get it...) nod to Kate Bush —except we didn’t just run up that hill\, we ran up all of them! \nT hat said\, it was a beautiful evening\, and the effort was rewarded with a spectacular full rainbow stretching across the sky. Naturally\, I attempt ed to be the first hasher to run through the rainbow arch but despite incr easing speed it remained stubbornly out of reach (Ed.

Not to be outdone in bravery\, Olive tackled the entire route with a meniscus tear.

True support\, hash-style.\nEngines\, Fashion\, an d Hidden Snacks\nDebriefed attacked the hills like a machine\, powering up wards with piston-like legs and no sign of stopping.
