As previously headlined the March 'run' takes place this Saturday. Meet up at N-Joy Bar at 3pm or at the run site in West Warin at 3:30pm.

CAUTION - driving to N-Joy bar from the ring road at Central Plaza is no longer possible due to a long term reconstruction of the bridge over the Mun diversion. Please see the attached map for alternatives: basically you either come along Palochai Road from the centre of town (past Ubon Prison) or you head down Thanon Chonprathon Tabo from the Ring Road past the western end of Huai Meuang and across the lights at Tha Chonprathon Tabo's junction with Sapphasit Road (West), continuing down to Palochai road at its extreme western end and turning left.

Directions to the run site are attached. Coming out of Warin along the Sisaket Road but still inside the Ring Road you are heading west. You will come past Warin Hospital. Turn first left (south) a few hundred metres further along Sisaket Road. That soi seems to be unnamed but there is a big Mom & Pop store on your right just as you turn left. Go down that soi and take the last side-soi on the left (east) before crossing the railway line. You wil only know that it's the last side soi by going to the railway crossing and turning back, then taking the first right. This side-soi is narrow and short and leads to a small fishing lake where you can park up.

Usual format. Beer stop, circle at the run site, more beers back at N-Joy and beyond for those wishing to make an evening of it! Look forward to seeing you this Saturday.

Hashing is social running and there have been hash clubs all over the world since its 1930s origins in Kuala Lumpur. The running bit is not taken seriously and beer is drunk to oil the social side. Ubon Hash, in line with the Ubon environment is laid back and only a few experienced hashers and wanabee enthusiasts put in a few spurts of running. The rest walk. Non-running social members who like to drink beer rather than take any exercise are welcome provided they pay the hash fee and don't drink all the beer while the rest of us are out on trail!

A trail is laid, typically in white powder like flower/chalk and the pack has to find the trail, which keeps the front runners busy while the walkers catch up. After the run the beer ice-boxes are opened and the socialising begins. We usually go back for some more beer and maybe some food around town in the early evening, and some more beer later in the evening, but that is entirely optional on your part!

Don't be a stay at home wuss - get out there with us and discover the sides of Ubon you would not normally uncover. It's dead cheap (100B) for your first run and inexpensive (250B) thereafter; even cheaper for Thais and under-17's - and that includes free beer after, and often during, the run.
