All China Nash Hash – Run 3

All China Nash Hash – Run 3
Wanchai H3 #1928

The Wan Chai sector is still hash central, but for nearly 3 decades, the Wanch Bar was HASH CENTRAL. Back in the 90s, before the internet took hold, the best way to find out where each hash was taking place was to go to the Wanch Bar and look on the chalk board. Unfortunately, recently the Wanch was taken over by new management, and the hash was no longer welcome. Then the Wanch actually moved. But hashers are resourceful, and have now found a couple other bars in the area to frequent. The Queen Victoria gets a lot hash business, as does the Taboo and Shooters Bar.

Well, on this last day of the 24th All China Nash Hash, the Wanchai H3 hosted us all on a fine trail on the island. We started out by running over to the channel side, and running down the highway, until we reached a drainage area, and dropped down onto a side road. From there, the pack skittered up the road, but there were some old marks on a post, and that sent the front runners off on a side journey, while the rest continued on and up onto a pipeline access to the top of the closest tallest mountain . . . by now you should have figured that out. Making our way towards the top, we had ropes and stairs, and eventually made the top. After a great view, is was back down the other side . . . only to find another split for the crazies to climb yet another mountain. These hashers in Hong Kong love nothing better than abusing their visitors by climbing mountains on trail.

As the pack began trickling into the finish, the beer was flowing and everyone was happy to be chattering along. Circle soon followed as the last of the pack wandered in, and several down downs were issued to celebrate the grand weekend. And it was . . . a GRAND WEEKEND hash event here in Hong Kong. Well done to all the hash clubs that sponsored trails for the 300 plus visitors. On a bright note, for those of us stay on a few days, we’ll get to run with the Kowloon H3 tomorrow, and the Ladies of Hong Kong H3 on Tuesday. GET SOME!! Czytaj więcej
