H4 Spring Campout 2010

Run# 1676 Hared by Geek
Run# 1677 Hared by B*tt Pirate and Grind Sl*t
BMH3 Run#7 Hared by Donnie the R*tard
Run# 1678 Hared by Platterpuss and Just Isabelle

I just wanted to say what an awesome trail that Grind Slut laid at the Campout. I’ve never run the Warrior Dash, but I doubt they had more fun than we did. My arms are still sore from climbing up the steep creek embankments by holding onto vegetation. The numerous creek crossings helped to keep us cool, and the palmetto palm scenery was great. Some things that I enjoyed on trail were the wonderfully sweet dewberries, Continue reading

H4 Run #1675: Pirate Hash

Hared by virgin hare Dee-dee-Dee, Little Boy Blew and Old Faithful (Miss Faithful if you’re nasty)

Ahoy, maties!  Hashers came from near and far to celebrate the Parate Hash in west Houston.  Miss Faithful hashes always seem to bring out the masses. 

Little Boy Blew gave the chalk talk, explaining the standard markings and the trail’s turkey/eagle split.  Prizes were promised to the best booty found on trail.  Continue reading

H4 Run #1673: League City Countryside Park Run

Hared by No Head T’night and Big Wet Hole
 
Everyone’s at TXIH!  Will anyone be in town to run the Sunday hash?  Will they drive all the way to the south side of Houston to run?  Hell yeah they will!  Close to 50 people showed up for a sunny day hash starting at Countryside Park on Bay Area Boulevard.
 
The freshly defloured hares proved that they could go it alone, and it was a fabulous trail!  We circled through the park and through some magnificent shiggy, crossing our first of several water crossings.  Pleather Balls will remember to be chivalrous next time… Continue reading

H4 Run #1669: Ides of March Hash

Hared by Cums Anyway, McPisser, Stuck on the Bone, Closet Queen and Just Sheryl
 
Daylight savings spring forward made the F*@k-Meat family feel luxurious for sleeping in.  Damnation… we lost an hour!  Lots of chores to do, then throw together some semblance of a toga for the always fun Ides of March Hash!!!  Toga! Toga! Toga!!
 
Beautiful spring weather and a centrally located hash beckoned the masses.  One hundred and two hashers came out of the woodworks, meeting at Heights and 7th and drawing the usual attention of the urban dwellers enjoying the outdoors. 
 
Cums Anyway had her marketplace set up in the median peddling the appropriately green Ides of March hash tshirts.  How can you resist Giggles?! Continue reading

H4 Run #1667: Steers and Beers Rodeo Run

Hared by Just Jarrod, Chorizo Polizo, and 8″ Crack

Opening weekend of the Houston Rodeo was picture perfect… perfect for the Sunday running of the Houston Hash House Harriers.  Our virgin hare, Just Jarrod, was taught how to do it by the older and more experienced 8″ Crack.  When we arrived, he looked sore, but very satisfied.

Hares and hounds gathered at the dead end of Buffalo Speedway at West Orem.  The sun was shining, but the wind was blowing cowboy hats all over.  8″ gave the chalk talk, with the standard markings, and the pack was off.

Surrounded by delicious, thorny shiggy, the trail led down the street and sidewalk, and for a mile or so through the surrounding neighborhood, much to Heartache’s chagrin.  Continue reading

H4 Run #1665: Red Dress Run

Hared by A$$wipe, Platterpuss, Smelly Trench, and Eazy to Please

Hashing for a cause… the hares planned this much controversial Red Dress run as the official H4 weekly run on a Saturday in order to keep our calendars free for Valentine’s Day!  How thoughtful!  They also added an optional donation to the Americal Heart Association so our guys could have a “valid” excuse for wearing red dresses through the busy streets of the Heights on a sunny Saturday afternoon.  Whatever blows your skirts up…

The hares and hounds met at the Big Lots on Shepherd and 11th, where the strip center patrons had a field day with our crowd.  Dick the Boy Wonder, aka the school girl, was kind enough to Continue reading

H4 Run #1663: 8″ Birthday Crack Hash

Hared by Pull the Plug and 8″ Crack 

Nervous that the cold weather and water crossing would keep people at home by their fireplaces, 8″ Crack sent multiple enticing emails luring hashers outdoors with homemade chili and veggie soup and a keg o Blue Moon… with orange slices.  How could we resist her annual birthday celebration?

The hounds met in the grocery store parking lot by Church’s Chicken on Sheldon Road.  The hares kept assuring us that there would be sun, but the skies were so cloudy.  Luckily, the sun popped out Continue reading

H4 Run #1661: Post-Marathon Hash and the 2010 Marathon Mile

Hared by Powertool and Will He Peter

So many long hours and lots of hard work went into making the H4 Marathon Mile a success. As a first year runner of the half marathon, I can say that that hard work did not go unnoticed. Knowing that our peeps and cold beer was close to the end of the race showing their support was what kept us going. Thanks, everyone!

The marathon after-party was at The Brewery Tap on Franklin, where they served up free pizza and a keg of brown ale. Hashers gathered from some pre-run beer, telling stories of the race and hash mile and admiring medals.

D!ckhead and Pull the Plug took some awesome pictures of this year’s Marathon Mile. Click the image above to see DH’s. Click the image below to see PTP’s.

H4 Run #1659: The TRUE Hangover Hash

Hared by Pull the Pr*ck Out, Brrrrrrgghh and NARC

After a long weekend of indulging in Maredsous 8, Allagash and BM2’s hella strong homebrew, I had a fever, and the only prescription was more cowbell… and the TRUE hangover hash!

Pull the Prick Out was in town for the holidays from France, so she teamed up with our super harriette, Brrrrrgghh and beer b*tch, NARC, to lay an urban trail on this cloudy, wintry Sunday before she heads home. The hounds met at the Harley Davidson parking lot at 1960 and 290 for a 3:00pm start, freezing our nips off waiting for chalk talk.

What Does the Backwards J Mean?
