#2596 – The Last Jungle in Linkou Run
Details
Hard Disk and Pig Skin were sitting on their favorite park bench in Linkou, drinking an alcohol they fermented themselves from chewed up rice grains and saliva, while looking at the passing joggers in disgust. “Bah! These kids today do nothing right!” said Hard Disk. “Look at them, with their fancy sneakers and their AirPods and their sobriety.” “I agree,” said Pig Skin, “and just look at our lovely Linkou! I remember when this all used to be green, with water buffalo plowing the fields, and mammoths taking their children from one glacier to another.” “And don’t get me started about the Hashers!” said Hard Disk, getting started about the Hashers. “Their runs are too technical. Their hash names, too sexual. Their GMs, too many!” “And, did you hear,” gossipped Pig Skin, “sometimes the hares plan out the entire route in advance on those fancy cordless phones, even deciding in advance on the checks! I suspect some even pre-mark!” Hard Disk was nauseated at the thought, but that could also have been the methanol poisoning. Hard Disk和Pig Skin坐在林口他們最愛的公園長椅上,暢飲著他們私釀的酒,那是精心用他倆滿嘴口水親自嚼碎的米粒發酵來的。同時充滿嫌棄地看著路過慢跑的人們。”現在的年輕人真的不行,沒有一件事做的是對的” Hard Disk嘆道。”看看他們,穿著太貴不值得的跑鞋,蘋果耳機,還有滴酒不沾的清醒。” “我同意,” Pig Skin說,“還記得我們可愛的林口嗎?這裡曾經綠油油的,水牛在田裡耕種,長毛象帶著牠們的孩子從一個冰川帶到另一個冰川。” “更別提那些捷兔跑者了! “ Hard Disk說,開始百般嫌棄,“他們的路線總是設計得太過技術性了、他們的兔名總是太鹹濕了、他們的會長太多個了!” “而且,你聽說了嗎,”Pig Skin八卦道,“有時候有些野兔還會提前在手機的軟件上弄出機器製造出來的路線,甚至跑前就決定檢查標記。我強烈懷疑根本提早灑麵粉!” Hard Disk 一想到這裡就覺得噁心作嘔,但這也可能是因為假酒中毒的關係… “Enough!” he shouted, suddenly rising from the bench. “Enough talking! It’s time for action! It’s time we showed these rugrats what a real hash should be, like in the good old days!” “That’s not legal anymore,” said Pig Skin. “Not those days! I mean we do a run that’s all about the chase! Hares versus hounds! The entire trail is runnable. If the hashers get too close to us, we make a check. That’s what they are for! Just like when we were kids and had to constantly run away from cloud leopards.” Pig Skin rubbed his weathered chin in thought. “We will need a trail that we know through and through….” The hasher smiled, and stood up. “I know just the place! Those kids with their motorized vehicles and their vaping and their semiconductors haven’t destroyed all of mother nature yet. There’s still one bit of forest left in Linkou!” “Excellent,” said Hard Disk, “but wait, some of the young hashers are fast, and we’re both so old. Do you think they could catch us?” The two hashers looked at each other, paused, then burst out laughing. “Very funny,” said Pig Skin, “I’d like to see them try!” “夠了!” 他大喊,突然從長椅上跳起來。 “是時候採取行動了! 是時候給這些屁孩們看看什麼是真正的捷兔跑,就像那些過去美好的時光一樣!” “可是有些東西已經不合法了,”Pig Skin說。 “我不是指那些日子!我的意思是,這個路線要是關於追逐的!野兔對決獵人!整條路線都要很好跑,如果他們快要抓到我們了,我們就畫出檢查標記,這就是為什麼發明檢查標記的原因,不是矯情地讓手機決定。整個路線就像我們小時候為了逃離台灣雲豹的追逐一樣。” Pig Skin在思考中揉了揉他年老風化的下巴。 “這會需要一條我們滾瓜爛熟的路線……” 野兔笑了笑,站了起來。 “我剛好知道有個地方!那些帶著電動車輛、電子煙和半導體的屁孩們還沒有摧毀林口的整個大自然母親。這裡還有最後一片失落的森林!” “非常好,”Hard Disk說,“可是,等一下,有一些年輕的捷兔跑者真的很快,我們都太老了,你認為他們會不會輕易抓到我們?” 兩隻兔子對看了一下,停頓了一下,然後大笑起來。 “笑死人,”Pig Skin說,“我期待看到他們試試看!” Credits Banner: CSO and Limp of Shame Story: Praying for Man Tits Translation: Minor Pusher ******WHO? / 誰?****** Hare 主兔: Hard Disk Cohare 副兔: Pig Skin ******WHAT? / 蝦咪******* A:A run / 路線:A to A L: 9 km + Elevation/ 爬升: 300m S: TBD km + Elevation/ 爬升: TBD *******WHEN / 啥時******* Date: Sunday, 9 March 2025 Time: Hares off at 14:00 兔子兩點起跑 *******WHERE / 哪兒******* Linkou Cultural Plaza 林口文化廣場 https://maps.app.goo.gl/JJAJWeTPFoLq1gk9A ******HOW? / 怎去******* Take the Airport MRT to Linkou (A9) and then walk or ride a Ubike to Linkou Mitsui Outlets to return the bike or catch one of the many buses that run to the Outlets.
