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

Run #1531: Bushy’s 10th Hare Bubbly celebration run (10 June)

Aint Ze Bush (aka Bushy) & Little Boy are teaming up once again to hare a YH3 trail (there is a serious bro-mance happening between those two, right?? Can we just re-name Run #1531 as the Bromance Run??)

Meet at the usual time and place:

Bushy has advised that the “site” is “Bushy’s ranch, resort, restaurant & beer station” (guessing that’s Point B, but it’s still a bit unclear) ….  Point A is the National Sports Complex, Pin Lon Road, North Dagon Township, with the Hare nominated as Little Boy, & the Stop Hare as Bushy.

There will be bubbly & hash food (Tom Yam Goong, Nasi Gorang, Beef Bok Choy, Szechuan Chicken, Spicy Watercress) at the end, so hashers are encouraged to RSVP (via the Facebook page, or email aruna1969@hotmail.com).

On, on.

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.
