Yangon Hash House Harriers | A drinking club with a running problem

Run in Brief

Straight from the hare’s mouth! No editing.

Cum Chuckler, Comatose and Juliet set a 9-10 km run in east Dagon

2 beer stops

Due to miss instructions Midgie was at a wrong place at a first beer stop but then was called to the right place but cum Chuckler

FRBs ran two wonderful loops to keep the pack together

Juliet was named

She had to stay on the oil platform while Comatose and Cum Chuckler scouted the trail

So she was named Well Drilled!

Let me repeat two beer stops!

Lovely shady trail!

On In at the Northern Kitchen Restaurant

The 50 street manager announced the 20 MMK deal, one beer or pizza and 8 beers on Saturday

The Yangon Hash House Harriers (YH3) meets every Saturday afternoon for a fun run and a few beers. The runs are non-competitive and are planned in such a way that everyone finishes within a few minutes of each other, irrespective of sporting ability. Indeed a goodly percentage of those taking part make no attempt at running whatsoever but enjoy a good walk. The runs can take place anywhere in and around the environs of Yangon and, more often than not, take place “off road” so you should be prepared to encounter mud, water, livestock and perhaps the odd leech! It is a truism that you will see and go to places on the Hash that you would not normally even know existed and it can be a good way to see an alternative view of life in the ex-capital. The runners, who currently age between a few months and the mid-eighties, have diverse backgrounds and ethnicity but the common thread is the social aspect of the run. Immediately after each Hash, refreshment is served in the shape of a few beers and any notable misdemeanours are publicly celebrated. Later in the evening, the members will meet up for a dinner and socialising can often go on to the wee hours if you are that way inclined.
