3.25 More Leggs

Episode Summary

Hashing changed More Legs’ life almost immediately. Newly arrived in Columbia, South Carolina, in 1986, she found a tiny newspaper notice announcing the inaugural run of a local chapter of a worldwide running organization. She attended, fell in love with the hash and completed more than 50 consecutive trails. The new kennel followed Samurai traditions, including naming hashers after six runs; she became More Legs because she reportedly had more legs than most men knew what to do with.

Her hashing journey later took her to Charleston, Heidelberg, Washington, D.C., St. Thomas and eventually back to Dayton. She helped establish kennels, served as GM in several places and has hashed in approximately 25 countries. More Legs shares stories from European Nash Hashes, Mount Vernon’s demanding live trails, founding a short-lived St. Thomas kennel and memorable international events. For her, the heart of hashing remains the trail: discovering unfamiliar cities, negotiating serious shiggy and keeping the pack challenged but together.
