  • And the Journey Begins

    October 10, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

    If this world adventure was not going to be exciting enough, I depart Hawaii today headed for Tokyo (for All Japan Nash Hash) . . . to arrive only hours before a massive typhoon (Hagibis) is due to make landfall.Read more

  • Japan Nash Hash

    October 13, 2019 in Japan ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

    Wow, what a way to start a world trip. Made it safely into Tokyo on Friday, and the heavy rains started Saturday morning. The trail on Saturday afternoon was in the pouring rain. Streets were flooded, trails were super muddy, everything was covered in 3-6 inches of water. It was a good sloppy 5k trail. Sunday morning trail was a fabulous 8k shiggy trail with rolling hills. Most of the water had drained away, and it was a hot sunny day. The second trail on Sunday was 10k, with much more climbing.Read more

  • Relaxing in Bangkok

    October 16, 2019 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C

    Made it to Bangkok, will be here for a few weeks. Today's trail with the Bangkok Harriettes was a good start to a month's worth of hashing in Thailand. The map does not do the trail justice for how many narrow alleys and side streets we managed to sneak through. Oh, and guess who was tits of the week? Hard to believe it has been six fast years since I last hashed here, so good to be back. On On. https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/4162…

    Ran with the Thursday Hash last night, another excellent small alley way trail. It does not show well, but what looks like near straight lines is really a bunch of short twists and turns, and ducking for low overhead. Here is a hilarious look at a bad intersection on the Bangkok Thursday hash. https://www.relive.cc/view/vevYVXWJoJO

    Finished off the first week in Bangkok with an excellent shiggy trail with the Bangkok Men's H3. Great times to be had . . . https://www.relive.cc/view/vPOpWYX2KEv

  • Day trip to Pattaya Jungle H3

    October 20, 2019 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C

    It was a long ass drive from Bangkok (over 2 hours each way), but an excellent trail today with the Pattaya Jungle H3. Over 90 degrees F, and high humidity, but feels so good to sweat it out . . . meaning the beer at the end tastes so good. :)

    Interesting fact about the PJH3, Checks are marked with wooden sticks, with a red X . . . and false trails, with a blue X.

    This makes 8 hash trails over the past 10 days since I left Hawaii. Feeling very good. Thanks to my old Friend Boob-a-lube for arranging transportation.

  • More Hashing in Bangkok

    October 25, 2019 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 33 °C

    BMH3 - After an awesome trip to Pattaya, it is back for more fun in Bangkok. First off, it was a spin around town with the Bangkok Monday H3. From the Zap Station, trail made the anticipated zig zag through the klongs and alleys in fine fashion. Unfortunately, our hares overlapped last Thursday's trail for a bit. At first it was fine, but instead of clearly marking the departure point, they used an intersection as was done on Thursday, which led the FRBs off in the wrong direction following last week's trail. The pack milled about for nearly 20 minutes before giving up and making their own way back to the start. It was a good time, but . . . 😊 https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/4178…

    On Tuesday, Boob-a-lube and I went out for a scouting hike to hare the upcoming Saturday trail for the Men’s hash. It was an excellent 10K hike in the sun, with little shade, but sure made the beer taste great at the end. Looking forward to setting this trail on Saturday.

    BH4 – On Wednesday, it was another excursion with the Bangkok Harriettes. Another interesting trail through the klongs and streets of greater Bangkok. I actually cracked the 12 minute mark (11:40) for a mile, for the first time since the surgery. Getting stronger and stronger . . . my wind is getting better each trail. https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/4184…

    BTH3 – It was another super humid evening, but a great trail. The mapped track on this trail does not even begin to display the intricate web of alleyways we weaved in and out of on this trial. The hares managed to find every little back alley and street on this city hash. A brilliant live hared trail full of fun. https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/4187…

  • Haring the Bangkok Men's H3

    October 26, 2019 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 34 °C

    My 12th trail in two weeks since departing Hawaii, and I got the opportunity to hare this one. It was a brilliant trail set up by Boob-a-Lube. It was an excellent runners trail, all flat, with numerous checks. Happy to just be a mule for a change after so many lead hare occasions over the past 6 years in Hawaii. Fun times for sure.

  • Another Amazing Week in Bangkok

    November 1, 2019 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    S2H3 – After the festivities of the Men’s hash on Saturday, it was off to the Siam Sunday H3. Yet another awesome trail that found numerous dirt tracks and hidden pathways in and around the city. I am a paid up member of the Men’s Hash, the Monday Hash, and the Harriettes Hash, but somehow missed the Sunday Hash, so made my contribution, and now completed the set. We had about 30 hashers turn up, and the weather held out just long enough to complete the circle (we did have lightning and thunder rolling in towards us as a warning). As we sat down for dinner, the sky unloaded and the wind blew, and after about 15 minutes it was gone. https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/4197…

    BMH3 - My buddy Rawhide set a super shiggy trail this evening. Lots of narrow shiggy trails along klongs and patty dykes. Had a little problem at 3/4 of the way through, when the in trail got a little close to the out trail, and some of us were looping for a bit, but we figured it out and made it back in after dark. Fun times in Bangkok. https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/4200…

    No hash on Tuesday, but I did go out on a 16 Km + scouting hike with Boob-a-lube for over 3 hours. This is the longest hike I have done since (well, you know). It started out an expected 10 Km hike, but soon turned into an exploration as we took some new turns. It was a great day. Later that evening, we joined the hash gathering at the Kiwi Pub on Soi 8. Good to see some old friends there as well.

    BH4 - Not sure whether it was the 16Km hike yesterday, or that I am finally off the blood thinners . . . but I was not feeling so great before the trail tonight. I decided to walk, but after a couple Kms, everything started to feel good again, so was able to run a bit. A short but fun trail from the Ladies, and many dressed up for Halloween. Good fun in Bangkok. https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/4206…

    BTH3 – Halloween. Trail was disappointingly short, but it was all in the dark, so it had some mystery all its own. Good circle, and fun chatting with the pack. https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/4209…

    NH3 – An unexpected opportunity popped up, YKM was in town and called a Nonthaburi H3 trail. So off we went. I have not run with the Nonthaburi H3 in 17 years, but it was good to see YKM again. When I first ran with the NH3, there was this horseshoe that was used to determine the next down down, but alas . . . the horseshoe is no more. Unfortunately, the trail on this day was a crap shoot. We actually never found the trail after the first check, and ended up running around looking for trail for the next hour. The only mark I saw after 7 Kms, was a beer stop at a bar about 200 meters from the finish, which had just been abandoned by the hare. Back at the finish, we had several beers and talked about the old days. It all turned out to be a great evening. https://www.relive.cc/view/vMv85y9ZKPO

  • Bangkok H3 Trail #2209

    November 2, 2019 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C

    Getting lots of great exercise, and lots of rest, here in Thailand. Have been able to get in 14 trails and two big hikes over the past two and a half weeks. Last night was yet another interesting trail on the outskirts of the city. With the trip to Japan, that makes 18 hash trails in three weeks . . . time for a change of scenery, so it is off to Sri Lanka tomorrow.

  • Colombo H3 Trail #2331 - Hukandara

    November 4, 2019 in Sri Lanka ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

    Up early in Bangkok, taxi ride to the airport, and off to Sri Lanka. Made it in as scheduled, but was unable to change my return flight, so it will be a short stay. Sri Lanka is a lovely country, arrived on a bright sunny day (although it had been raining quite hard off and on for several days). Was an easy 45 minute transit from the airport to the hotel, checked in and relaxed a bit with a cold Lion Beer. Got in an hour long nap, and dressed for the hash. AINT ZE BUSH had arranged a tuk-tuk to pick me up and deliver me to the hash a half hour away. As it turns out, it was the final trail of a weekend long event that included a Hash Ball, and this trail was the annual joint run where the ladies were invited to run on the men's hash. Excellent pack of over 40 hashers gathered for the 8 Km trail in the Hukandara area. It got very dark towards the end of trail, but we all managed to find our way back to the house, where cold beer and snacks awaited. After cleaning up a bit, we had a rousing circle in the back yard, with a hash bag give-away, and a fully catered dinner. After filling up, and quenching my thirst in ice cold Lion Beer, Bushy again set me up with a taxi back to the hotel for a quick clean up, pack up, and check out of the hotel. Another 45 trek back to the airport for an early 1:15 am flight back to Bangkok. Awesome day, will definitely go back to Sri Lanka again.

  • Back in Bangkok for more fun

    November 6, 2019 in Thailand ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C

    After an amazing trip to Sri Lanka, Wednesday started out with an 11 Km scouting hike with KC. I'm always happy to go hiking, and Thailand has some awesome hiking trails. After a quick snack and a couple beers, it was off to run with the Bangkok Harriettes.

    BH - Another fun trail with the Bangkok Harriettes. Our 81 year old hare Ambrose, kept us guessing on this 8 km scurry around town. Just goes to show you that you are never too old. Well done!! https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/4227…

    Thursday turns out is a no hash day during the week of a Full Moon hash, so opting to go out for another hike. Was 11 Kms of scouting, will be an excellent future 8 Km hash trail. In the evening, I enjoyed an excellent Korean BBQ with some of my Seoul Bruddahs Boob-a-Lube, Virginia Slim, and Rawhide.

    BFMH3 - After hashing in Bangkok off and on since 1998, and although it started in the early 2004, I have finally managed to be in town for a Bangkok Full Moon hash. It was an excellent jaunt through town in the dark, and we had many visitors here getting ready for the Mekong Indochina Hash next week. Good times for sure. https://www.relive.cc/view/vXvLY28ND1O

    After a month of continuous hashing, and 21 trails in less than a month . . . I finally took a day off and skipped the Bangkok H3 to catch up on some much needed sleep,

    S2H3 - Back on trail again with the Siam Sunday H3. Things started out a little crazy, but after searching for a long while, we managed to find the paper. From there on out, it was all pretty good shiggy. Great time on the hash, and we had several more visitors prepping for going north to the Mekong Indochina Hash. https://www.relive.cc/view/vAOZBDQWXoO

    BMH3 - After last weeks trip to Sri Lanka on the Monday, it was back to the Bangkok Monday hash this week. We had lots of visitors on this one, in preparation for the Train Rumble to Chiang Mai, so the pack was at least three times the normal size. Although trail was a little short, it was full of twists and turns that kept it exciting the whole way. Got to rest a bit, as I have to scoot out to the airport to pick up Founder Pounder to join in on this fun hash excursion. https://www.relive.cc/view/vPOpWZXjVRv
