Bangkok Harriettes #2259
50 minutes ago in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 37 °C
Late last week, the Hare Razor sends out the following bulletin . . .

*URGENT - Hare needed for Wednesday April15!*

I was still scouting to set trail on Saturday for the Bangkok H3, but figured I could throw something fun together by this week. Friday I was scouting for Saturday, Saturday I was the hare, Sunday we had a Siam Sunday Hash, Monday we had the regular BMH3 trail . . . so it all came down to Tuesday. Many of the other hashers were gathering for a special Songkran walk to shoot water on everyone they passed by. I took the opportunity to go out and scout for this run. Managed to find some good shiggy despite never really running in this particular area before. So . . .

Wednesday rolls around, and it is in the high 30s (about 100 F) out. I tweaked some of the problem areas from scouting the day before, rerouting around mean dogs, and set a decent 8 km trail. While rerouting around the dogs, I ran into some even worse dogs, and had to reroute my reroute for the benefit of the pack. At the end of the day, everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, and rehydrate with ice cold beer. That makes 12 trails hared by me in 2026 (don't say it, I have a life and it is GRAND)!! 🙂Read more

Bangkok Monday H3 #2207
April 13 in Thailand ⋅ 🌙 32 °C
It is the start of the annual Songkran festival here in Bangkok, also known as the water festival, for the new year. While Bangkok was getting wet, we ventured to the outskirts of the city for a little run around. It was an excellent trail set by Boob-a-lube, Incomplete Erection, and AB . . . and was nearly 10 kms long, in the scalding heat of April. We all survived to get some cold beers at the end, and fun was had by all.Read more

April 12 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 35 °C
Horny Viking hared this one, and told us right from the start it was going to be all pavement, and upwards of 15-16 kms. So we drank a little extra water and set off expecting to sweat. He was accurate when he said all pavement, but in the end, we only ran between 10-11 kms, so a bit shorter than anticipated. Actually, although it was in the high 30s (high 90s F), we had a decent breeze, so still sweaty but not too bad.Read more

April 11 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 37 °C
My turn to hare again . . .

A little background on the Bangkok H3. The hare (often 2, but I usually hare on my own) goes out in advance to set the trail with paper (and chalk or flour if needed), normally out on the countryside to get off the pavement. The pack gathers at the appointed start location, but the hare must not be seen until AFTER the run. So as I finished, I stopped a few hundred meters shy of the finish and enjoyed a cold beer while waiting for the pack to set off.

I heard comments after, that they thought this was going to be mostly pavement, but you can decide from the pictures provided. Less than 1 km of the 8 total was pavement, the rest was green green grass or dirt.

Everybody seemed to enjoy the trail, but that did not stop them from punishing the hare in circle. Hahahaaaa.Read more

Nighttime city trail, pretty straight forward. I know this area too well, so cut a few corners after falling behind the FRBs. We had several visitors, which made for an interesting circle. Dinner was in an Indian restaurant, which was excellent. Great finish to a fun evening.Read more

They say plagiarism is the most sincere form of flattery . . .

Our hare, the Nigerian, had the best of intentions . . . setting the trail I set at this same location just 9 days prior, but in reverse. He did make a couple of minor modifications, but basically the exact same trail. He even reused my paper, and attempted to cross out some of the arrows . . . but missed many of them. So the pack got confused in several spots as the arrows were pointed in the wrong direction. The pack managed to sort it all out in the end.Read more

April 6 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 37 °C
The temps are climbing here in Bangkok, and today it was 35+ . . . but with the extra heat, the humidity was oddly low. We dashed off at 1730, now that we have adjusted to summer hours.

It was a well marked and fun trail. Last time we ran from this spot (at least for me), we basically did it in reverse, but I did not recognize the location until about half way round the trail. BUT, always a good time here in Bangkok. We had a couple visitors from Trinidad, so nice to see them.Read more

Bangkok H3 #2505
April 4 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 37 °C
Good to be back in Bangkok, for another hot and dry trail in the outback. It was a good 90 minute drive out to the west for the start, and temps were hitting above 37 C. We figured the hares would be sensible and keep it to a reasonable length . . . but NOOOOOO. We were staggering in over 2 hours later, having traversed 12 + kms of joyous shiggy. The DFLs were coming in at close to 3 hours.

It actually was an awesome trail, very well marked (with a couple exceptions along the way). Plenty of stories in the circle, and it was another free T-shirt run, so good times for all.Read more

April 2 on the Philippines ⋅ ☀️ 34 °C
One last trail here in the Philippines before heading off to the next adventure. Was good to see some old Hawaii friends over several of the trails here this past week.

The ACFMH3 is a super laidback hashing experience. Normally a city trail, and everyone walks (so I did as well). There was no circle, we all just sat around chatting and enjoying the beer until the hash cash for the day ran out. They had some nice shirts, but unfortunately they had none for sale.

It is the start to Easter Weekend, so there were some religious parades going on. We passed a couple of them, and wandered some back streets, passed through a night shopping market, and looped back to the start point to finish up a 4 km trail.

We had about 20 hashers on trail. Good conversation, talking about future events, and funny past events. Good times here in the PI. I'll be seeing some of the local hashers at upcoming events here in the region. On On.Read more

Subic Bay H3 #1699
March 30 on the Philippines ⋅ ⛅ 32 °C
Missed their 1700 celebration by one week, but did make the hash today. Trail started with the first KM going straight up the mountain behind the hares house, up to the ridge. Then another KM along the ridge. From there, the decent was crazy, about a KM of sliding nearly on our butts, then into a rock bed creek for another KM before finally popping out onto some decent dirt tracks for the last bit into finish. Whole trail was only 4.5 KMs, but took most of us over 90 minutes to complete. Brutal.

Others took longer, so it was a long wait before the circle. Once we got into it, the circle was a hoot. Plenty of songs, and they do all birthdays for the month on the last Monday of the month . . . so there were 4 lucky hashers getting trashed with flour, eggs, beer, and various other cake materials. Good fun on the hash.Read more

A bit cooler today, and the trail was much more related to running . . . although this is mostly a walking hash. I pushed on and ran the trail, which was 6 kms, with many beautiful vistas and great dirt tracks. Big pack, seemed like 75 to 80 hashers. Pictures tell the story. Very fun hash, and circle was good fun with lots of singing.Read more

Corona H3 #315
March 28 on the Philippines ⋅ ⛅ 33 °C
A brief history of hashing in the Philippine Islands . . .

The first hash club to start on the Philippine Islands was the Manila H3 founded by James 'Ratcatcher' Howard on 22 May 1972. He came over from Indonesia where he had been running with the Jakarta H3, and was assisted by Paul Bono, Fred Smoot, and Paul Simons. This club did not last long, as the second coming of the Manila H3 was founded by David Jenkins on 28 Apr 1975, with the assistance of Turkey Tom Noonan.
The history of the Manila H3 has been recorded by long time resident and local legend ‘Squatta’ in his “Poore Squatta’s Almanack.”

Just 3 years later, the Angeles City H3 (a.k.a. The Volcanic Ash' and originally named the Clark USAF Base H3) was found by Bill Booker on 19 Aug 1978. He had been hashing with the Manila H3, and was assisted by Walt Daniels and James ‘Silver Fox’ Gillard.
Since both the original and follow on Manila H3 was men only, the opportunity for the ladies to get involved finally happened when the Manila Harriettes was founded by Robin sometime in 1980. She was assisted by Judith Vaughn.

The Manila Mixed H3 was founded by Malcolm 'Lamb-Butt' Lambert on 14 Feb 1982. Lamb-Butt was assisted by Mike Gawthorpe, Olivia Gawthrope, Henning Jakobsen, and Nikolai Stettevollin.

The La Union H3 was founded by Bob 'Cobra' Chambers on 20 Nov 1983. Cobra had been hashing in Papua New Guinea with the Port Moresby H3, and was assisted by Wayne 'Wicked Mudguard' Ward, Ray 'Veteran' Bruce, and Rob 'Malibog' Denny.

The original Puerto Galera H3 was founded by Eric 'Digit' McGaw in Oct 1986. Digit had been hashing with the Manila H3, and was assisted by Andy 'The Fat One' McGaw. This club does not appear to have lasted long, as the second coming of the Puerto Galera H3 was founded by John 'Capt'n Malibog' Molyneaux on 8 Oct 1990. He had arrived from Hong Kong where he was running with the Wanchai H3, and was assisted by David 'Moby Dick' Austin and Chuck 'Coral Garden Walrus' Driver.

The Olongapo H3 was founded by Valerie 'Toe-Ma-Toe' Trader on 16 May 1987. She had been running in California with the San Diego H3.

Wrapping up the 1980s, the Angeles Beach H3 (a.k.a. British Empire & American Colonies H3) was founded by Rob ‘Malibog’ Denny on 20 Jul 1987 as a splinter group from the Angeles City H3. He was assisted by five others; in all they were called the ‘Gang of Six.’

NOW . . . getting to the point . . . The Corona H3 is a splinter hash off of the Angeles City H3 as a result of the COVID Pandemic. It was founded by "Egghead" back on 22 Mar 2020, more details to follow on that, but here is the scoop on today's trail.

Local hashers can make their own way to the start, but most choose to meet at Harriette's Place to ride in the Hash Truck (the overflow go in a jeepnee as needed). It was about a 35 minute ride out to the run site, way out beyond where the pavement ends.

The Corona H3 is known for their more physical trail requirements, to put it bluntly, and today was no exception. It was only 6+ kms, but took most of us well over 2 hours to complete, due to the extreme hills, bamboo forest, ditches, gullies, shit to climb over (and under), and all the other glorious shiggy. There was water, there were climbs, BUT, there was NO PAVEMENT. What a great day.

After finishing trail, the hares served us with a BBQ and there was plenty of hash beer. We had the chance to jump in the pool to cool off (OH, did I mention it was close to 38C (near 100F), so it was enough to regenerate enough energy for circle. After lighting the bonfire, we circled up for an hour or more of great entertainment. You'll just have to come out and experience that for yourselves. What a great day on the hash.

The pack was so friendly, so nice to hang out with. I'll post more pictures after I steal them from some of the local hashers. 🙂Read more

March 23 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 34 °C
Another hot and humid day, just the way I like it. Nothing makes that first beer taste better than getting a good sweat going on trail.

I don't think that our hare, Khlong Dump, had anything in mind for the shape of his trail, but it vaguely makes an outline, take a look for yourself. It was explained as a long trail, nearly 9 kms, but if you have to break checks, it can easily add some distance.

We had one visitor from San Francisco, well actually England, but . . . this led to the funniest moment of the day. In circle, the RA, 4x2 called in his own wife for the first down down, stating that as they pulled in and saw me chatting with the visitor, she said . . . "Oh Look, Hazukashii brought his mother." Well, since the visitor, Just Sam, is younger than me, it drew a huge laugh. I got another laugh when singing a down down for someone else . . . Why where they born so beautiful . . . and got to the part, "They may be a joy to my mother . . ." pointing to the visitor. Good times.

Other than that, our visitor was also awarded the Prick of the Week. Honors to her.

Overall, a great day for a run. On On.Read more

Another club I had the opportunity to set trail for the first time, after a couple dozen visits over the decades. Managed to find some dirt tracks out in Lat Krabang, near BKK airport . . . along with a couple railroad track and river crossings. Had about 30 hashers turn up for this 8 km soiree. Guess it turned out ok, even the restaurant approved. 🙂Read more

Venturing way out of the city, Kamikaze took us on an adventure in the rice fields of Nong Chok (about 50 kms away), and it was a free hash shirt day so thanks to the hares for that as well. Trail was all on wide open spaces, as the photos will attest. Fresh air for all. Pretty good sized pack, but I did not count them, maybe 25+ attended. Another great day on the hash.Read more

Bangkok Harriettes #2255
March 18 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 33 °C
All hail the Harriettes, on their 44th Anniversary. The Bangkok Harriettes had their first run on 17 March 1982. Having previously hashed with the Jakarta Harriettes, the founder . . . Janet Baker, with the assistance of Christine Morf, set about to get the Bangkok Harriettes up and running on a weekly basis on Wednesdays, which they continue to do to this day. There was a brief period where they changed their name to the Bangkok Wednesday Hash, but that lasted less than a year, returning it to Bangkok Harriettes.

Often referred to as the ‘Friendliest Hash in Bangkok, Janet Baker explained the founding like this . . .

“Tony ‘Godfather’ Erswell urged Christine Morf and me to start the Bangkok Harriettes, as he felt there were a number spouses of active Members of the All Male Bangkok H3 who would like to run and who would enjoy the spirit of the hash. We talked it over and deigned to give it a try. However, we really didn’t think it would fly. We decided to lay the first five runs in Lumpini Park until we got the hang of the whole thing. We had quite a group for our first run, but it was padded with female staffers of the Bangkok Post! Well, we got some good publicity out of it!”

Although the Bangkok Harriettes started out as a women’s only club, eventually men were allowed and it became a mixed hash. Christine Morf was a regular in the beginning, but departed Thailand after the 50th run, she commented that “After 2-3 months we had trumped up a pack of around 20 harriettes, but I don’t really remember when we allowed men to join. Maybe it was after I left?”

Well, the MEN are fully entrenched in the Bangkok Harriettes now, and this week we had two MEN hares, Checkless and Gringo, that set an amazing trail out near the golf courses of Ya Sabai Village. It was a well constructed course of 8 kms, taking in several khlong paths, back alleyways, and various other dirt tracks that kept the pack guessing throughout. Circle was short and sweet, and we then recessed into the seafood shop for good eats. Another great day of hashing in Bangkok.Read more

We had some rain in the afternoon, and it cooled things down a bit, but was still pretty humid. The trail was a good run, but I got off on a false trail near the start and did some exploring before wandering back to trail. Thankfully there were some good pack marks that help me catch back up.

My turn to hare again, stepped in when a fellow hasher had to back out last minute. So I quickly went out and started scouting, and found some decent tracks. I only took a few random photos, so does not offer the full vibe, but gives a glimpse. One area that I planned to use, was through a rice field, which when I scouted on Friday, was dry, but when I got there on Saturday afternoon, had been flooded again. Would have been ankle deep mud (or deeper) to get across. Decided to run them around on the road (which ended up being one of a few down downs due to excessive pavement).

It was another hot day here in Bangkok, but we still had about 25 hashers turn up, all good. There were a lot more dogs out on Saturday, than there were during scouting, so had to alter some of the intended turns a bit, but it all worked out in the end.
Next hare will be next weekend for Siam Sunday H3, after that we'll see what is happening with INTERGULF, guess I will visit Angeles City for the first time.Read more

Not gonna lie on this one . . . there were a ton of long straightaways, that crush your soul. You run along, and turn a corner, and you can see several hundred meters ahead, and the pack is spread out along the whole length. Once you get to the end, you turn a corner, and the format repeats.

BUT, the trail was well marked, and in the end we all finished and had a good time. Circle punished the hares enough to make it even, and all was right in the hash world. So there you have it, constructive criticism works every time. Life is grand, and ON ON!Read more

A bit cooler this evening, made for a good run around Bangkok. Smaller pack of about 20, we started out with several zig zags that led into a tough check, that kept us guessing for a while. We then found marks and that led us into the beer check. That led us through a door out onto the khlong path.

We then worked our way back through the streets until we caught up to the walkers that started about 30 minutes before us, just a few minutes before the finish. Good trail, good day for running, and always great to be in Bangkok.Read more

Another great day on the hash here in Bangkok. Small pack of about 24, and the trail had plenty of shiggy. True trail was supposed to be 6 something kms, but the hare confessed that he had done a bit over 8 to set it, and many of us in the pack ran over 8 kms . . . so there is all that.

It was a beautiful day, great trail, the beer was cold at the end. All was right in the world. On OnRead more

Fresh off our big 2500 event last weekend, we return to normal trails with an excellent Pork Finder trail. All was well for the first half, then we hit a check that stumped us for some time . . . but eventually we figured it out and were on our way to the beer.

We had a large crowd for a regular weekly trail, with several returners and a few visitors as well. Temps were a bit cooler than we have had over the past few weeks, so all was well on the hash.Read more

I was feeling pretty weak at the start, after having scouted trail earlier in the day, wandering about 10K out in the sun. But it was a hash, so time to rally. We had about 30 hashers turn up for this nighttime trail, and off we go.

There were limited checks, so the pack got spread out. We pulled it all together in the end, and all was well. Circle was short and to the point, and then dinner. Fun on the hash here in Thailand.Read more

March 4 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 36 °C
We straggled in to the start point, in the blazing sunlight of about 35 degrees C, and endured the wait. Once we set off on trail, the sun began its slow dip over the horizon and things eventually cooled down. Trail was supposed to be a short endeavor, but the hares decided some crazy checks were in order, so we scrambled around in all directions looking for the on out trail. Half of the checks were broken in due course, but the other half were painstakingly examined for an extended period . . . if it looks like kms 4, 5, and 6 are close together, that is because we were befuddled . . . BUT, we eventually figured it out and made our way back to the beer. HooooRay.

Another great day on the hash.Read more
