2010 Marathon Mile

Posted on by

The Chevron Houston Marathon and Aramco Half Marathon are only 10 days away and several hashers will be running both the half and full marathon this year, along with roughly 25,000 other people. The Houston Hash Marathon Mile is always the funnest place to be on marathon day whether you’re a runner stopping for a beer break or a hasher fulling the cups.

This year’s theme is “Gone Fishin’.” There will be at least three boats at the mile, and everybody else should bring out their fishin’ poles, lures, waders, favorite hat, stringers, nets, plastic fish, etc. There are also a few hardy hashers who camp at the mile the night before. After the jump, an incomplete list of the hashers running this year. Continue reading →

Blue Moon Full Moon

Hared by Just Ali, Dr Strange Rub, and Vote for Pedro

Thanks for a great time last night. You get my vote for most retarded trail of the year! That keg of Blue Moon was awesome and the way our French friend took control of McPissers beer jug full of oranges added a nice touch to the beer service. I’ve never felt that classy. Congrats to Ali for FINALLY getting her name! I think we have tabled more names for her than anyone else in the hash. One suggestion was actually “Table Her”, but after her attempt to cut the circle short we decided that she was being a jerk and she shall henceforth be known as “Circle Jerk”. Just make sure you are never DFL or else you’ll have to eat the cracker. Also, congrats to Dr. Strange-Rub for being defloured with TWO full bags of flour last night. Continue reading →

Muscle Phart tells a story

Posted on by

The Blue Moon is December 31, and the last time that happened was December 31, 1990. We did a run that night, the hares were, I think, Scum Puppy and Glassblower (anybody recall for sure?), and it was one to remember. The night was cold, clear, still. Trail started just outside the Addicks flood plain, the hares indicating that it shouldn’t be too difficult to follow. Mounting the levee and looking down, we saw what they meant: trail was set, not in flour, but in luminaria; down the levee, up, curving, and down again, meandering throughout the woods and bogs of the plain, up and out again, all lit by little candles in sacks. On trail, oddly, there wasn’t much calling out (no need of it, really), just the sound of feet on grass and the occasional curse at stumbling. All we needed was a little Schubert and we could’ve been our own ‘Ave Maria’ sequence in that classic Disney stoner flick. Ended in a parking garage. I could swear

We did some bowling for tvs (which would be odd, that being a Valhalla, not a Hash, New Year’s Eve tradition), or did we? I recall going to the Valhalla party afterward, and not much else. Yup, one of those times to remember, such a good time, in fact, that parts of it go unremembered.

Nostalgically,

December PC Hash

Hared by John Boy

Hooter counted 14 hounds* plus John Boy the live Hare. At least two (John Boy and Limp Noodle) actually went down the big hole and through the tunnel under I-10, while others finessed it. In fact Hooter, after circling Stude Park at the start, holed up at Onion Creek, and joined the pack at the end on the abandoned railway line by the bayou. The rain stayed away. On on on was at Onion Creek.

*Limp Noodle (from Edmonton) , Baby Huey (from San Diego), Pee Pee, Pee Wee, Le Pussy Checker, Heartache, Saran Crap, Il Castrato, Roller Balls, DoppelGangBanger, Butt Pirate, Hooter Bill, Who The F**k Are You, Ass Grabber (with propane heater at end).

John Boy picked Limp Noodle for the PC Hare for January. He said he’ll still be in the area until mid-January, and will probably hare it on Thursday Jan 14.

Your scribe,
Hooter Bill

H4 Run #1657: Primo Shiggy, Awesome Trail

Hared by Saran Crap, Grind Slut, Parson’s Nose & Master Chugger

Congratulations to the hares for an awesome trail. Had this trail occurred before the Christmas Party, it would have definitely been in the running for Trail of the Year. Visiting hasher MIA from Los Angeles & Dallas was so impressed that she told us the Los Angeles and Dallas hashes were going really hear about this run. Parson’s Nose, who has hashed all over the world, told me that most hashes that he has run in other countries, were child’s play compared to this run. Way to go hares!!!

On-on to the New Years day Hang-over run
