If anyone doesn’t know what Hash House Harries is or are it is a group of nominally running clubs throughout the world in major cities where like minded and non like minded individuals get together for some exercise, banter and socializing. I say nominally running because probably 25% or more actually walk. It depends on the group. Bangkok group which meets every Saturday evening is probably about 40% walkers. The Hash as it is known is often called a Drinking Club with a running problem as alcohol is involved, if one so choses.

 

The object is fun, camaraderie and exercise. But there is an element of geographical exploration (as first you have to get there) , networking and local knowledge and advice. For instance: Need to know about permanent residency or Thai citizenship? Well there are a few who have done that and will be happy to share their experience face-to-face. In Bangkok: Never been to Nontaburi or Pathumtani? Also you will find a mix of nationalities and walks of life.

 

To find us just Google Hash House Harriers and add your location.

 

It is not for everyone but… and they say you only need half a mind to join.

Hashing is great fun and a great way to explore the countryside and meet people from all walks of life.

 

This hasher has hashed In Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia Philippines and of course Thailand also a founding father of two hash chapters in Singapore.

 

Give it a try you wont be sorry

Yes. No rules, just friends , run/walk and fun.

 

Thought I would add that if anyone in Bangkok wishes to join us they can PM me here. 

S2H3 (alternate Sundays) is a family friendly hash and ideal for those who are unable to hash on a weekday or Saturday. Trails are normally within a one hour ride from central Bangkok. As much as possible, trails are set in nature, though not always easy in our sprawling metropolis. Trails tend to be about one hour for front runners and 90 minutes for walkers. Terrain varies, sometimes you will get very dirty and wet (especially during rainy season May-October), though there typically isn't much elevation change on S2H3 trails.

 

The after run socialising at a local restaurant and well attended. The cost of the meal is about 250 baht, including drinks.

 

Hashers are encouraged to bring a change of clothes and towel to clean up after run.

Oops

Tomorrow's 6:30pm Thursday Hash is from the Beer Garden on Soi 81. Pizzas there are OK as well.

Great time on Tuesday. Raining so no trail to follow. Just walked between bars, 6. Recovery took longer than if we had run.????
