    Surulere H3 - Beerathon 4.0

    14 September, Nigeria ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C

    It has become an annual tradition with the SH3 to have the beerathon. It is basically a day of games and fun, then a hash trail with numerous beer checks . . . today we had 6, over a 6 km trail (as you know I don't drink on trail, and decided to score a few extra kms. Tweaked it out to 10).

    As the pack got farther into trail, and pumped in more beer, they become more hilarious. It actually was a great day on trail. Circle was the usual antics, plus a couple of namings. Then we had some snacks and relaxed a bit before heading back into the city.

    Back at the hotel, our prelube gang had a meet&greet to get things started, and pass out our goodie bags (two shirts and a Happi Coat). Tomorrow is a new day, and some of the pack will head out for a tour. For me, it is laundry day, to reduce the smell of four days of hashing.

    Tomorrow we have one final hash in Nigeria, with the Lagos H3. Tuesday it is time to board the bus and head to Benin. Wooo Hooo, more adventures.    Baca lagi

    Apapa H3 #440

    12 September, Nigeria ⋅ 🌧 25 °C

    Another adventure here in Lagos, this time with the Apapa H3. From chatting with the other hashers, this club always runs near the water, so today we met at the Naval Dockyards. Trail overlapped with the Thursaday Boys trail from last night, but we figured it out. Good thing they put a date on their trail marks.Baca lagi

    Dienstag Schnitzeljagd Trupp H3 #832

    9 September, Jerman ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

    I strapped on the flour bag one more time, for my last hash trail in Europe for 2025. Was great to see Weenie Woman & The Saint out for a DSTH3 once again. We had about 15 on trail today, and it was a fun 8 km trail. After a morning of rain and grey skies, all cleared up by trail time, so we had lovely sunny skies in all directions.

    I am off to Nigeria tomorrow, for some new adventures.    Baca lagi

    Stuttgart H3 #865

    7 September, Jerman ⋅ ☁️ 23 °C

    Since I had only covered 35 kms of the total 42 of Hashathon, being one of the hares, I figured one more trail was in order. I drove 2 hours from Lemberg to Stuttgart, and arrived in time to join in on the regular Sunday trail.

    I was not expecting another 11+ kms, but here we are. Nearly 47 kms for the weekend.    Baca lagi

    German Hashathon - 2025

    6 September, Jerman ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

    Note: this was the 750th trail I have hared over the past 40+ years of hashing.

    Getting caught up after a long weekend. I rolled into the campsite on Friday afternoon in order to scout my trail for the weekend. Hashathon is a one day, (usually) 4 trail day, with all 4 trails combined achieving the distance of a marathon. This year, due to small numbers, we did it all in 3 trails.

    My Friday afternoon scout covered 18 kms of scenic joy, trying to figure out a fun and interesting path to lead the pack on. There were a couple spots of NO JOY, that I was able to bypass on Saturday.

    After a fun Friday night around the campfire (and I made sure not to drink toooo much), I tried to get a good night's sleep so I was ready to go Saturday morning . . . BUT, elsewhere in the tent was a snorer (name redacted to be fair, not his fault he is a f*cking human lawnmower when sleeping). I got a solid 4 hours of sleep, but awoke to the old John Deere revving up. You can have a listen in the photos section.

    Anyway, as the sun broke on a new day, the pack gathered for trail 1, and off they go . . . at this time, I set off to set my trail. With a few edits along the way, and eliminating some of the worst bits, it came in at 16.5 kms. When I asked the pack if they preferred me to run it with them . . . OR . . . provide drink stops, for some reason they unanimously chose drink stops. So I got a break there, but most of the pictures I have were from the scouting, or a few from other hashers on trail.    Baca lagi

    Frankfurt H3 - Unofficial

    4 September, Jerman ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

    So there I was, minding my own business, and flying from the UK to Germany. I thought since I was arriving in Frankfurt on a Thursday, I could catch the weekly hash. BUT, they had already moved to their winter schedule (back on Sunday).

    I offered to set an in-betweener, and 6 hashers turned up for some fun. It was a 7+ km offroad affair, with wild animals on display. Good times, just for the heck of it. We got lucky with the weather, as it was supposed to rain, but it held off . . . just for us. 🙂    Baca lagi

    Deepcut H3 #661

    3 September, England ⋅ 🌧 19 °C

    It was a surprise to see there was a Wednesday morning hash run in the greater London area, and since I was headed that direction anyway, off I go. We met at 1100 this morning, and despite the grey skies and a bit of a drizzle, we still had about 25 hashers turn up. At one point, a fellow hasher pointed over to an older gentlemen and said he had been here the longest, but does not do trail anymore.

    Since it is a weekday daytime hash, as you might expect, we were all retirees. Trail was a most excellent 5+ miles (10K) of shiggy trails through small forest patches, pastures, dirt tracks, and a few bits of pavement in between. At first it was less of a hare & hounds event, and more of a shepherd herding his sheep. We would run along, then the hare would make a new mark and turn us all around in a different direction. By the second half of trail things smoothed out and we were able to follow along in a more traditional fashion.

    Most of the run was fine, but it started to drizzle again just as we were finishing, so we quickly put on some dry clothes and headed into the pub for lunch. No real circle, only one set of down downs all at once for a few assorted categories, and good conversation. At one point, a hasher pointed at the older gentlemen from earlier, and said he founded the first hash in Germany. I immediately perked up, and said "Is that Mountain Rescue?" He said, yes. My response . . . "WHAT?"

    I made my way over to say hello. The first historical article I wrote on hashing was on the first hash in Germany, from back in 2011. In my research I eventually found my way to Richard "Mountain Rescue" McAllister . . . and summarized our conversation into this article: https://dsth3.gotothehash.net/hhhistoryinde.html

    I have since expanded on his hashing history in a full article on Hashing & the Military at https://www.gotothehash.net/.../ItS-Hashing&amp… . . . so it was an unexpected, but pleasant surprise to meet him.    Baca lagi

    Didcot H3 #1707

    2 September, England ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    Taking advantage of every hash I can get to while I am here in England, and today it was very rural . . . way off the beaten path. Ran with a great pack of hashers in Aldworth, a very small community about an hour west of London.

    It was a pretty good turn out according to the GM, Whimpey, of about 25 hashers. Trail was about 7 kms mostly out along farmer's fields, with amazing views of the countryside.

    As you can see from the photo, marks were very basic and to the point. Circle was a check, but wait for 6 to gather before checking. Circle with an X in it was a regroup. Arrow with a number was a fish hook . . . very few regroups or fish hooks, so all good. 🙂 Besides those, the only other marks were plops of flour, and basic arrows.

    Didcot H3 does not hold a circle, no down downs, just friendly socializing while we grab a pub sandwich and drink a beer or two. A great night on the hash.    Baca lagi

    Bicester H3 #2645

    1 September, England ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C

    I have been having the best time wandering around the countryside here in England, running with another hash club almost every day (have run 12 hash trails in the past 13 days). Today, I had the opportunity to run with the longest running ‘weekly’ hash in all of the UK, the Bicester H3. For a quick review, the first hash club in the UK was the Longmoor H3, founded by Richard ‘Mountain Rescue’ McAllister on 12 May 1969. The second club to form was the Commando Forces H3 founded by Ray Thornton on 1 Mar 1971. On the heels of the Commando Forces H3, another club was formed months later when Mike Read arrived from the Lagos H3 in Nigeria. Eager to extend his hashing lifestyle, Mike founded Westcombe Park H3 on 19 Dec 1971, and this hash is still active, making it the now longest running hash club in the UK.

    Both the Longmoor H3 and the Commando Forces H3 were military based hash clubs, and due to force rotations, they folded with the departure of their founders. Ray Thornton subsequently was reassigned to Oxfordshire and wasted no time founding yet another hash club, the Bicester H3 on 1 Apr 1974. While the Westcombe Park H3 is the longest running hash in the UK, Bicester H3 is the longest running weekly hash, and has racked up the numbers to show for it, having completed over 2600 trails.

    Now, back to the trail today, the pack could not have been any nicer and more welcoming to a ragamuffin visitor such as myself. Once the pack had gathered, we had a quick chalk talk and off we went. Now the Bicester H3 has one mark that is a first for my travels. A check is a bar, just one long line of flour. Everywhere else I have seen this mark it was a false, but a false here is an X which is found many places (it is also a check in many places, but here there are no circles to be seen. There were only four marks on trail . . . A standard blob of flour, an arrow, the bar which is a check, and an X for a false. That’s it!! I love the simplicity, and most of the trails I set have just a few basic marks too, so I would fit in just fine with this club. 😊

    Trail was all out in the countryside, mostly crisscrossing farmer’s fields and a bit of old road, with the final km or so snaking its way through some single file dirt paths between buildings as we rambled into the finish. A most excellent trail. As the pack reassembled, everyone made their way to the bar to quench their thirst with their beverage of choice until circle started. Short and sweet the circle was, we all had a few laughs and then recessed to the bar for one last round and talked a bit of hash history.

    Another great day on the hash . . . I really liked this pack, will have to come back for another visit.    Baca lagi

    Hare & Hounds H3 #1805

    31 Ogos, England ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C

    The H5 normally run every week from a different pub in the Bedfordshire or North Herts areas, but today they ran from central Milton Keynes. With an 1100 start time, it was up and away from London and an hour drive north. When I pulled into the parking lot, a few hashers were on hand, and over the next 20 minutes the rest rolled in ready to hash.

    Now, I have been traveling around the world to attend many different hash events, but also to run trails with various hash clubs as I have been doing on this visit to London. The H5 has one of the most unique styles of setting trail. The walkers and runners are on the same trail, but the trail is littered with fish hooks and hash holds as a way to keep the pack together (those of you who know me can already sense my frustration 😉 ). Overall, the runners did get nearly 6 kms in, but the true trail was likely 3 kms, adorned with 9 fish hooks and I lost count of the hash holds, but I think it was about 5 or 6.

    The pack was super friendly and welcoming to visitors, and we all had a really good time. The circle was direct and brief, with a few laughs, and some enjoyed a couple beers along with lunch.

    While I appreciate the opportunity to join them on this trail, I don't think I could be a regular, as the fish hooks and hash holds are such a detriment to running (lord knows I don't run very fast any more, but still like to keep going forward). But again, I appreciate their way of hashing and really enjoyed hanging out with them this morning.    Baca lagi

    London H3 #2794

    30 Ogos, England ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C

    This was my first time running with the London H3, and it was an exceptionally special 80th birthday event, as our lead hare for the day was Thunder Thighs, who has been on the London Hash for 47 years. Through her and her proxies, they set an excellent 7 km trail through the streets of Wood Green.

    Near the end, there was a drink stop that turned into a birthday party, with a raffle, drinks, all sorts of nibblies (cheese, meat, crackers, chutney, etc). From there we wandered back to the pub for circle and about 3 more hours of socialization amongst hashers. This has been the third hash this week that was a birthday celebration, as the Brighton H3 on Monday was the 80th for Psychlepath. Tuesday, it was the 77th for Wurzel at the Weybridge H3, and then today again for Thunder Thighs’ 80th. We’re all getting a bit grey on the roof, but glad to see these stalwarts still getting out to the hash and contributing.

    I have been in the UK for 11 days now, and have run 10 hash trails, and have 5 more trails lined up for the next 4 days. Gotta love hashing in and around London!!

    Here is the brief history of the London H3 . . .

    The British capital finally got a hash club on 7 Apr 1976, when Ian McGregor founded the London H3. Ian had been hashing in Hong Kong before the advent of circles and singing, and it would not be until 1984, that down downs became a part of the London H3. The LH3 had other unique issues in their early days, as described by ‘Wet Blanket’ in a 1985 hash article, when he states . . .

    “It is fair to say that LH3 in its early years showed certain idiosyncrasies that marked it out from other Hashes. This largely sprang from [Ian] McGregor having announced the inaugural run only in the Bulletin of the Inter-Varsity-Club – a worthy organization (of which I was and remain a member) but, it must be admitted, not particularly in tune with some aspects of ’traditional’ hashing! . . . The result of this initial entanglement with the IVC was that the great majority of runners in the Hash’s early days were IVC members and as such not particularly concerned with Hashing ‘traditions’ or with making much of an attempt to attract a wider membership. Culture clashes occurred when unsuspecting IVC joggers were confronted by the occasional visiting ex-pat, talking of such arcane mysteries as down-downs and beer wagons.”

    It appears that by 1985, London H3 had gained a stronger footing with seasoned hashers. More recently, the London hash ran on Monday evenings in the summer, and Sat/Sun in the winter. They now run consistently on Saturday, meeting at noon for a 1230 run start.    Baca lagi

    Stonehenge

    27 Ogos, England ⋅ 🌧 18 °C

    Cleared another one of those bucket list items again today. It was kinda cool, but no disrespect to the UK, this one is a bit over rated. It costs £30 to enter, plus parking (which was a little rude since this place is out in the middle of nowhere). It was also overcast and raining off and on, but still worth the hour+ drive.Baca lagi

    Weybridge H3 #2111

    26 Ogos, England ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C

    Another in the old hash clubs of the United Kingdom series.

    It was an awesome night time 7+ km trail in the dark. We had about 20 on trail, and it was full of great little passageways, pastures, and dirt tracks. Didn't get many pictures, and none of them very good. As for the history . . .

    The Weybridge H3 has an interesting twist to the founding and naming of this hash club. Their first run occurred on 25 Jul 1976 and was organized by the founder, Chris Fletcher. Chris had been running with the Seoul H3 and copied the logo from them. Plagiarism is the sincerest form of flattery after all.

    How the Weybridge H3 got its name . . . The following explanation comes from the Weybridge H3 website. They had completed their first trail, and since many were new to the sport, the known history of that time was explained to the pack. There was enough interest that another hash was scheduled a week or two later, and they decided to call themselves the Surrey H3.

    For the first few months, they ran trails on Sunday afternoons at 1400, but due to conflicts with other family activities, and the shear fact that most pubs in the area were closing at 1400, the decision was made to move their start time to 1100. Their first trail starting at 1100 was in Oct of the same year. They met up at Plough Coldharbour, but they thought no hare had been designated, until . . .

    . . . suddenly the Hare, Keith Strainge, broke out of some bushes and panted up to us; "It's mayhem out there! I started laying some paper (we used computer punchings in those days, very non pc!) then came across another load of trail markings, my trail is mixed up with it, it crosses it all over the place, total disaster!"

     Just then we hear a shout; "OnOn" and "Toot Toot" (a hunting horn!) and lo and behold a bunch of tough, athletic looking runners appear running and calling down OUR trail. One, maybe it was Ron (the On) Walters, had a tee shirt with "Surrey Hash" hand painted on, Oh dear what's going on? Are they going to "bash us up"?

    Well, they ground to a halt because they were doing the reverse of our "out trail" which went to the landslip car park where they had started! After a short "discussion" ("we are the Surrey Hash!" "NO WE are!" etc.etc.), we decided try and follow our respective trails, their marks and paper were slightly different from ours, and we meet up afterwards at the Plough to "sort things out".

     Following our trail was just about possible, and they seemed to get around theirs and so we met up at the pub around 1 o'clock. I remember Ron Walters who seemed to be sort of in charge and Lionel Tye and Neil Thompson, who muttered conspiratorially in a corner. It transpired that they were on run 82, we on 11. They had an "On Sec" (Jim Raper who was rich to boot!), we operated by word of mouth. They had "Joint Masters" and a bucket for shandy, we had bugger all! OK, we agreed; you are the Surrey Hash we will call ourselves something else . . . We got together and debated our name... Addlestone Hash House Harriers? NO too common, says Tony Shore; let's be WEYBRIDGE HHH! That's more acceptable (and POSH!)! And so it was to be.

    The Weybridge H3 is still very active, now running weekly on Tuesday evenings.    Baca lagi

    Brighton H7 #2428

    25 Ogos, England ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    Brighton H7 #2428

    I had the opportunity to hash with one of the older hash clubs in the UK today. The Brighton H7 (a.k.a. Brighton & Hove, Horsham & Hawards Heath H3, or BH7) was founded by Robin 'Robo' Salter on 5 Jun 1978, and was assisted by Pete Eastwood, Pete Beard, Phil Mutton, and Nick Cheney. He had previously hashed in Pakistan with the Islamabad H3.

    The BH7 was originally called the Vale of Sussex H3 named after the ordnance survey map covering the run area. “The first run was from the Devils Dyke pub on the south downs, and Peter 'Local Knowledge' Eastwood is the only survivor still attending regularly with almost 1800 hashes to his name”, according to John ‘Bouncer’ Biggins.

    Our hare for this auspicious occasion was celebrating his 80th birthday, so we had a sip stop in his back yard, before carrying on to the end. It was a pleasant 6 km trail.    Baca lagi

    UK Nash Hash Wrap Up. After the 21 km ball breaker trail on Saturday, and the 13 km trail on Sunday, it was finally time to roll things back . . . so . . .

    We started the day with the regular hangover trail for UK Nash Hash, a short wander about town to clear the head. Then after a "Spare Rib" circle, we grabbed our things and headed for the gate. Since it is Monday, it also offered the chance to catch another hash trail for a regular weekly run. So, on to Brighton.Baca lagi

    24 Ogos, England ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C

    Sunday morning came early today, and with a smidge of a hangover it was still rise and shine for more trail bliss. Today it was the Crane Valley Trail, which was an awesome B to A 13+ km romp starting out to the west and running back to the venue.

    Plenty of good dry shiggy and dirt paths to keep us busy. The pack got tied up with a pub stop near the end, but we eventually reassembled for a circle, and it was all good fun. On On to one more day of the great event here in the UK.    Baca lagi

    For the second week in a row, we find ourselves on the BB trail. Last weekend at Eurohash, it was 25.5 kms . . . today, it was only 21 kms. It was an excellent trail, full of fun and crafty intersections.

    It was an A to B adventure, we started at the venue and ran across Richmond Park for nearly 4 hours. Lots of fun in circle, too much good stuff to recount, so you should all just join us on the next BB Trail. On On.    Baca lagi

    It is all prep for UK Nash Hash this weekend, and the WLH3 had two trails today . . . one was a Red Dress, the other was for those more interested in trail. 🙂 We had a splendid 5 mile (8 km) spin around the Kenton area.
    The RDR was capped at 60, but we still had about 25+ on the dash 2 trail. Plenty of food served up at the end, and a quick but entertaining circle to follow. Tomorrow we rock up for Nash Hash.    Baca lagi

    Oxford H3 #1322

    20 Ogos, England ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    It was an early morning rise and shine in Latvia this morning to get on over to the airport, for the 2.5 hour flight to London. Then a quick transition to get the rental car and a 2 hour drive on up to Oxford.

    It was a smooth transition from hashing in Riga yesterday, to hashing in Oxford today. The Oxford H3 pack, although small with only 7 of us today, they were super friendly and accommodating.

    We set off at the appointed time of 7 pm, and looped through a couple parks, crossed a few bridges, and ran down main street to the finish on this A to B trail. There we had our choice of beer or cider, and served up a plate of some tasty fried potatoes (sorry, can't remember what they called them).

    Then we had a quick circle to recognize the hare, and the visitor (me), and then we meandered back to the bar where we started for another round. Wow, a great day on the hash.    Baca lagi

    Riga H3 - Special Postlube Event

    19 Ogos, Latvia ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C

    We have resurrected the Riga H3 (for a prelube before EUROHASH), and now again for the postlube. Only one hash club is known to have existed in Latvia, the Riga Beerslayers H3. Listed as being founded on 19 Sep 2000. There is no indication how long they existed.

    We had a splendid city run today with a pack of 26, thanks to our hare and organizer, Special Needs. Well done old chum. Trail started in Old Town Square, and crossed the river to take in the views. Coming back around to the other side, we ended in the corner of another park for beers and circle. This was my first time in Latvia, and it was a great day on the hash.    Baca lagi
