No real complaints about yesterday’s Hash trail. A good 6K hike with one moderate climb, nice weather, and no falls or injury. Just the way I like it!
I took a tricycle back to Barretto and devoured some pork chops to satisfy my well-earned hunger. Then it was on to home and in bed by 8 p.m. Not as sad as it sounds, it was a fine day.
Pubic Head and I will be Hares for next week’s trail. More on that later.
I saw that “outpost” photo and, completely unbidden, a question popped into my head: how do you all handle pooping while on the trail? Just move off to a discreet (ahem) part of the woods and drop your bombs? Or tough it out until you’re On-Home? I can see the latter solution being the more popular one: these walks are short enough to endure a poop urge. I’ve had moments on my various Incheon-Busan walks where I’ve held off for ten kilometers or more until I reached civilization… or at least a decent porta-potty. Best solution for me: manage the rhythm of my intestines so that poop urges don’t happen while I’m on the trail!
Unrelated: Cream Filled Cupcake is indeed a cutie.
I’m lucky to be very regular and almost never have the urge to go after my morning ritual. One or two occasions off the Hash I had to pop into a hotel or gas station to use their facilities. I pee on trail frequently, but that’s different of course. Still, in an emergency, you could make like a bear and find a secluded spot in the woods. Hope I never have to go that route though.
Yes, I’d love to fill her cupcake with my cream!
