Bangkok Full Moon H3 #251
January 2 in Thailand ⋅ 🌙 30 °C
First trail of the new year, and my first time haring for this club. It was a fun night trail for about 25 hashers. Some of the pack were able to look ahead and skip some loops and finish in about 7.5 kms, while the FRBs clocked in up to 12 kms. 🙂 Plenty of twists and turns, and lots of checks to keep them guessing.

Looking back on 2025, I was able to run 188 hash trails in 25 different countries, and hare 33 times in 8 countries, with 87 different hash clubs. That was a pretty good year, but I think I'd like to slow down a bit this year . . . let's see if that happens.Read more

Bangkok Monday H3 #2193
January 5 in Thailand ⋅ 🌙 29 °C
We started at the Hidden Lighthouse for this journey by the lake. Same start and same hare from a trail earlier this year. The first time around it did not turn out so well, both in setting the trail and the weather. This time was much better, good warm evening, and trail marked much better . . . so some hashers can learn from past mistakes. 🙂Read more

Bangkok Harriettes #2245
January 7 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C
Last trail in Thailand for a while, off to the airport. Time for some Caribbean breezes blowing through my hair. 🙂 We had two fast rabbits setting trail today, in a well known area . . . so not too many surprises. Was still a fun run with great weather. The Harriettes were the first hash club I ran with in Thailand, back in 1998, and I have finally reached 50 runs with them. Good things take time I guess. See y'all in a few weeks.Read more

TNTH3 / Mutiny H3 #1
January 9 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C
After months of drama with the Jolly Roger H3, we have finally put a fork in it and walked away. Hopefully this new hash club will catch on and bring back the fun.

I arrived back in Tampa from Bangkok, at about 7 am, and after some brief discussions, offered to set this trail today. Worked out very well, and fun was had by all. I even sold a few books at a mini book signing.Read more

Sarasota Circus H3 #360 After the jet la
January 11 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 20 °C
After the jet lag crushed me on Saturday, I got a great night's sleep. So today I ventured south to Sarasota for the Circus H3. It's about a 70 mile drive, but mostly interstate, so only about an hour drive.

Disappointing turnout, only one hare and two runners, but we made the most of this 7 km trail. Well, true trail was probably only about 5 Kms or a bit more, but with only two checking, we had to do a lot of work. The weather was awesome, so an extra delightful day on trail. It was my 40th trail with this club, and it has taken me over 13 years to make that mark.

No pictures on trail, was busy looking for it. 🙂Read more

InterCaribbean Hash - Day 0
January 17 in Puerto Rico ⋅ 🌬 28 °C
The gang of about 120 is mustering here in San Juan, Puerto Rico this weekend. We had about 50 or so on trail this afternoon for a rare running of the Puerto Rico H3. Trail had a runner (7 km) / walker (2 km) split, and a combo split that I ended up doing of about 4.5 kms since I turned up late. We have two hotels, and mine is about 10 kms away from the main hotel. Trail started at 1600, and we could not check in until 1600, so had to cram it all in . . . but we made it work.

After trail, we did some nostalgia drinking at the Caribe Hilton, where it is legend that the Pina Colada was first created there . . . so a few of us wandered over to check it out. Interesting, but they price it as a one and done, so we did not stay long. Dinner was in order, and we ate and drank our way till time for bed. We are headed to our Princess cruise ship in the morning, for a week of "Let's Find Out." Sure to be fun.Read more

InterCaribbean Hash - Day 2
January 19 on the U.S. Virgin Islands ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C
We spent the day getting on the boat yesterday, so we traveled over night to our first destination here on St Thomas. We made it pierside at 8 am, and off we go for an 8:30 am start.

It was the Moon and the gang from Pittsburg haring a 5 km jaunt up along the coast. After an appropriate wait time, we were off on the run. The first check exiting the port had a few of us turned around, but we eventually sorted things out. The walkers stayed along the water, while the runners took a few deviant turns along the way until we all merged just before the pub for down downs. Circle was adorned with lots of laughs and songs, and by 11 am we were all off on our own for the day.
It was a nice hot morning, but by the time we finished trail, the sky was starting to frown on us. It has since rained a good bit, so our marks have all been washed away neatly, like we were never here. 🙂Read more

InterCaribbean Hash - Day 3
January 20 in Sint Maarten ⋅ 🌬 26 °C
We are on Sint Maarten today, and lovin' every minute of it. Excellent island trail today, hared by a couple hashers that flew over from Barbados . . . just to set this trail. Hats off to them. It was a rather short trail of just under 5 kms, but they managed to find a wee bit of shiggy for us, NICE!!
Circle was on the port, at Sharkey's, and with at least 6 major cruise ships in port, it was hard to find a corner that was out of the way where we would not offend any other pedestrians (but we managed). Another great day on the hash . . . tomorrow, yet another opportunity to disgrace ourselves in public. 🙂Read more

InterCaribbean Hash – Day 4
January 21 in Antigua and Barbuda ⋅ 🌬 27 °C
We pulled into St John’s early this morning, and were immediately swept away by the local Antigua H3. We arrived at 8 am, and by 9 am we were on our way down the coast to one of their excellent run sites. After a quick chalk talk, we were headed to the closest mountain to climb over. The runners had a 5 km stomp up over, while the walkers had a flat saunter back to the beach.

Circle was short, but rowdy, as several of the pack had to be back at the port for an island excursion. The rest of us enjoyed the hospitality of the port bars, or back on board the ship. It was a great day on the hash, and cheers to the Antigua H3 for hosting us. On On!!Read more

InterCaribbean Hash – Day 5
January 22 in Dominica ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C
We have arrived on the island of Dominica, and there is no hash here . . . BUT, there is a hasher here, formerly of the Barbados H3. Anytime the Barbados hashers come to Dominica, they call on Semen to set up a trail. When we came off the ship this morning, it was raining, and according the Semen, she set the trail yesterday and it rained all night . . . SO, she was not sure how well the marks (marked with flour) survived. We would soon find out, as she sent us across the street and up the hill. Some of the marks were large, and fared pretty well, but others were likely lost to the rain drops. We managed to find our way around, probably skipped some bits of trail as we meandered back and forth, but the beer was waiting at the end, so nothing was going to stop us.

Semen said the trail was going to be short, but even with a couple of long searching episodes, I still came in at just about 2 miles (3.2 kms). Being old, and in need of a bit more exercise to work off yesterday’s hangover (see what I did there, invoked at least two of the championing requirements of hashing), I set off for another lap, that got me up to at least 3.5 miles on the day. I returned just moments before circle was to start, and we prepared to work on today’s hangover. Circle was a hoot, with lots of good participation. We have several hashers from Guyana with us, and they all wear the same shirts on each day, most of them especially made for this cruise. They have had group down downs every day so far, that’ll teach them. 😊 Overall, we have a lovely international group of hashers from far and wide.

We have only one more day on shore for trail, in Barbados tomorrow, then we finish with one day at sea on Saturday, then sadly we have to say goodbye, but will have loads of good memories. Many thanks to China Brush and Barron Toungess for hosting the grand adventure.Read more

InterCaribbean Hash – Day 6
January 23 in Barbados ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C
We are on Barbados today, and although I had been out in the sun all week, today I get sunburned. No worries though, I understand beer soothes all pains. We had a long walk off the pier this morning to get things started, but soon enough we were on our way for the longest hash trail of the week, at 5.55 kms. That makes an accumulated 28 kms for the week of 6 hash runs (would have easily been 35-45 kms back in Bangkok).
The Barbados H3 graciously hosted us today . . . setting trail, organizing the beer stop and on-in. We circled up at a local craft brewery (Carlisle), where many hashers partook of the local hand crafted options (the local piss was waaaaay cheaper, so most of us enjoyed that, as we did in circle as well). We had 3 virgins on this trail, two from Jamaica and one from Barbados . . . obviously they got to experience their first down down. An attempt was made to name our cruise virgin, who has now run 5 hash trails in 5 different countries to start his hashing career . . . but nothing good came of it, so we tabled that naming until the pub crawl onboard the ship, tomorrow.

That’s it folks . . . we are back on board for the next 40 hours until we return to San Juan. Some of us will be making our way the short distance between this Princess cruise ship, over to a Norwegian cruise ship, and do it all over again next week. Yay!!

For me, this makes 8 countries I have hashed in already for 2026, gettin' jiggy with it so far.Read more

A Day of Transition in Old San Juan
January 25 in Puerto Rico ⋅ 🌬 28 °C
No hash today, but we returned to Puerto Rico for the end of the InterCaribbean Hash cruise, and for about a dozen of us . . . we had a few hours to kill before boarding our Norwegian Cruise with the Traveling Beer Drinkers H3 cruise.

I decided to walk the 6 kms for a little exercise, with a short off at McDonald's along with way, with Rongjon.Read more

Traveling Beer Drinkers H3 – Cruise 2026
January 26 in British Virgin Islands ⋅ 🌬 27 °C
Yesterday it was off one ship, and on to another . . . Princess Cruise Line vs Norwegian . . . so far, Princess is hands down the better cruise line. We’ll see how the rest of the week goes.

Our first stop on this cruise was Tortola, in the British Virgin Islands. Trail today was a short 5 kms through town, and up the side of the mountain range there close to the shore. Looked like we had pretty much the whole 70 hashers out today, big crowd. We started at the “Watering Hole” Pub, but soon enough we were out on the streets looking for flour. It was all flat . . . until it wasn’t . . . then it was up up up for what seemed like 12 minutes, but was probably only 10. Our delightful hares found us some shiggy, and then we finished down at the pier near our big white UBER ship. A good start to another fun week of hashing in the Caribbean.Read more

Old Buffalo H3 #1
January 27 in Antigua and Barbuda ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C
Old Buffalo H3 #1 (Trail 2 of the TBD H3 Caribbean Cruise)

The Old Buffalos have been a strictly social hash club up until today, when we had our first actual trail. It was a scamper through the local streets and alleyways from the port in St. Johns and headed north to a beach cabana where the pack was able to get in the water.

Trail started at the port, and after about the first km, there was a runner / walker split that gave the runners a bit more interesting and distant option to see the sights. There was a beer stop at about 5 kms where the two trails met up, then we all finished up the final 3.5 kms to the beach. I was one of the running hares to the beer stop, then was drafted again to finish up the final leg to the beach. After we all got our dose of vitamin D, and probably plenty of sun burned backs and shoulders, we made our way back to the boat for an on board cocktail party. As you might expect, it was a great day on the hash.

No one has posted many pictures of the trail unfortunately, and I did not take any while I was setting . . . but there are al couple below that give a sense of the surroundings.Read more

TBD H3 – Cruise 2026 - Barbados
January 28 in Barbados ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C
Seems this pack is getting worn down pretty early, as only 35 hashers turned up for the run. A few did go diving, but many just went into full vacation mode and skipped out. Or maybe it was because I was the hare. Oh well.

For those that did make it, we enjoyed a 5 km walking, and 7 km running trail, with plenty of tiny alleyways, bridge crossings, and grassy fields on the way to a beer stop across the street from Rhianna's childhood home, and plenty of beer at the on in.Read more

Traveling Beer Drinkers H3 – 2026
January 30 in Saint Martin ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C
Traveling Beer Drinkers H3 – 2026 – Saint Martin (the north side of the island)

This was a near repeat of a trail I set here back in 2019, at Orient Beach . . . yea, the nude beach. We had about 50 hasher join us, but only a few of us were daring enough to bare it all on the beach with 400 of our closest friends that we’ve never met before.

Tight Lips was the lead hare, Gockel Stumper was the bus organizer, and I chipped in with setting the runners trail. Trail was all clothed, as the walkers had a nice stroll around the lake, while the runners got an extra couple miles up and over, hither and fro. It seems we have all made it back to the ship, so all is good. Another great day at the beach . . . and of course, great hashing.Read more
