I will respect that. I instead will give you a backstory on TipToe. He has been around for as long as I can remember and he is a quiet one that rarely participates in the conversations that happen at the events. He also has a nagging leg injury that nobody knows the origin of because he doesn't want to talk about it and that is fair enough. \n\nSo he is a member that is shrouded in mystery and I don't even think anyone knows his real name and that is just fine. I have learned the real names of many of the Hash members in our troupe,<br> but I still call them by their Hash names.\n\n<center> \n![image.png (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmU8yif6Vxg4dgi5rse3cpENDJwk1BGmBPwmBYJ1369GYh\/image.png)\n<\/center>\n\nThis happened a little while ago but I neglected to take any pictures of the event because I know how camera-shy TipToe is but if you take a look at the commemorative shirt you will see that it says \"Beer Monster\" as well. The amazing thing about TipToe is that even though he has never been obligated to do so and the duty is something that is normally passed around annually,<br> he has volunteered to be the Beer Monster for the Monday runs for years. What is a beer monster you ask? Well that is just the person who is in charge of assuring that we have enough beer on site for all the runs during our ice-circles that we do after every run. This is where we drink after our run,<br> socialize,<br> and basically act like little kids for an hour or so before returning home... many of us return home to real little kids. \n\nTipToe has elected to have this position for as long as I can remember and he brings the beer on his own transportation as well and this is an unusual type of transport that you don't often see outside of Thailand.\n\n<center> \n![image.png (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmVMHNX8f3F9qVkgeejVzgQiKnzESsfPyHg3enKK712PoX\/image.png)\n[src (https:\/\/www.bahtsold.com\/user_images\/2020\/03-25\/390658\/img_83190_1585130958_91311.jpg)<\/center>\n\nThis type of vehicle is often used by people that are selling something at markets and they are technically not street legal. If you stay out of the city center with these things though,<br> nobody including the police even care. If you stay out of the way and don't block traffic like a dick,<br> nobody is going to report you. The upside of these things is that they are cheap,<br> the downside is they are dangerous and quite slow especially if you have to take it up a hill. This in no way thwarts TipToe though,<br> and unless he was medically incapable of attending,<br> he would turn up,<br> rain or shine,<br> to every week's event. \n\nHe is also the caboose on many of our events because he normally walks with a cane because of his leg injury. He is patient,<br> calm,<br> and knows the routes very well. He serves a fantastic purpose to all new members because he never runs and always keeps a lookout for anyone that might be lost. \n\nWe truly appreciate his involvement in the CMH3 and that is why we celebrated his 500th a lot more so than we do most other people's. Congratulations TipToe... Now let's get you at least 100 more runs in before 2027! \n\nOn On!\n\n<center> \n![Screen-Shot-2012-11-10-at-14.11.541.png (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmbzxEqQ9uxkSS9p3Yzc4cZaqSf1pok4sBrAPnGiBbdoiu\/Screen-Shot-2012-11-10-at-14.11.541.png)\n<\/center>",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"running\",<br>\"hashhouseharriers\",<br>\"thailand\",<br>\"chiangmai\",<br>\"beer\",<br>\"outdoors\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmU8yif6Vxg4dgi5rse3cpENDJwk1BGmBPwmBYJ1369GYh\/image.png\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmVMHNX8f3F9qVkgeejVzgQiKnzESsfPyHg3enKK712PoX\/image.png\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmbzxEqQ9uxkSS9p3Yzc4cZaqSf1pok4sBrAPnGiBbdoiu\/Screen-Shot-2012-11-10-at-14.11.541.png\" ,<br>\"links\":[\"https:\/\/www.bahtsold.com\/user_images\/2020\/03-25\/390658\/img_83190_1585130958_91311.jpg\" ,<br>\"app\":\"steemit\/0.2\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown\" " |
