Houston Hash House Harriers

All,

Longtime Houston/Space City Hasher and friend Slick Fifty passed away Dec. 30th after a long bout with cancer. Please remember her and her husband Mt. Ahjima in your thoughts and prayers.

Put Sunday the 30th on your calendar for the Hash Mile (mile 11/24 on Allen Parkway across from the Federal Reserve — map here). The Chevron Houston Marathon and Aramco Half Marathon are a mere week away. Every year, the hash sponsors mile 11/24 of the race route in what has become our biggest community service project of each year.

The theme is “Cowboys and Indians” so we have built a fort and several tee-pees! Runners will start showing up by 7:30 or thereabouts, and we need you there to cheer them on. And as usual, we’ll have tons of food, beer and entertainment, all very kid friendly. Please no dogs.

So if you aren’t running the race, be sure to dress up. If you are running the race, be sure to take a little break at mile 11/24 for some golden elixer. The finish line can wait.

A growing list of hashers running each race is after the jump.

8” Crack Birthday Run

Hares: 8” Crack & Pull the Plug

Hounds: 62

New Boots: 1

Knowing where our hares live, it was a little surprising for the hash to start on the northeast side of town. We knew that tons of shiggy was inevitable, that is a shiggy-licious part of town. Our “Point A” for the hash was in a familiar parking lot. Some of us remember a recent Houston hash starting there in the recent past, as well as a Kouston Hash On-on for more…

Quote of the run: “Heartache did not short cut! He zen-hashed the trail!” –Heartache

Freezing. Of all the runs I can remember, this first Sunday of 2011 was a cold one. Indeed, the hares warned of a chilly ending, but not an @$$ freezer! Tai Tai Toy promised to sacrifice Mud and Ramrod to the hash gods “Shanghai Style” which brought out over 80 people in pure curiosity. They promised a 4-5 mile trail of urban and mixed shiggy and some holy guacamole a la CSI. We began at the Full Moon parking lot, and took a little trip into the Memorial wilderness. Hounds off at 2:30 sharp!

Now, dear hashers, your reverent and endearing On-Sec was running a wide version of the Memorial Loop earlier in the day while training for the Houston Marathon (what a rac*st), and found, what looked to be flour. Let me recount the tale…

One Year of Hash Relationships Not Working

Hares: Twinkle Toes and Easy to Please

Hounds: 57 regular hashers

New Boots: 4 virgins

Sunday.  Hash. Twinkle Toes.  Easy to Please.   Hares. Horses. Motor Bikes. Red Necks.

We just hate it when civilians get in the way of our hashing!

As if making it through a year of dating in the hash is not hard enough, why not let the hares be challenged with having to change their trail mid-hash?!

The hares decided to start the hash at the end of a road near a school on the south side of town.  When we parked, Shiggy was all around. This is going to be a good one! On-on for more…

Hash Run #1710

Hares:  Geek and Hooter Bill

Mismanagement asked our Grand Masters to set this year’s Christmas Party Hash since they are very much a part of who Houston H3 is.  Here are some interesting facts about Geek and Drummer/Hooter Bill:

1. They each have over 30 years of hashing experience between them.
2. They have been hashing so long that they’ve even met “Horse” Thompson, one of the original hashers who started the Hash House Harriers along with G.
3. This is the first time they’ve EVER On-on for more…
