Run # 587 God knows where

We decided to start 2023 with the city run. And as dazed and confused, 1 half of the hare was, it all became chaotic right off the start. 

Yes, FUBAR was one half of the duo who were going to hare. See that is where it already becomes interesting. Now, it becomes even more interesting because the second hare was the Vada Pav-loving, curse inventing, Wackopedia. See where we are going?

The Run (as announced)- It was announced that the run would start from the gate of Inorbit Mall and finish at Malad Social. Sounds super simple, innit? 

The Haring procedure- The hares would set a trail, and mark it with red tape or flour or chalk, or limestone. 

Fubar set off on Saturday morning to mark a rough trail, halfway into his journey, he realized he'd forgotten to carry the damn tape. So he just walked the trail and got it on Strava. 

In the evening, he and Wackopedica set off once again, this time with the red tape. They marked the first 3 km of the 6kms trail and then stopped. 

They stopped at a local watering hole known as Panchmukhi.  It was a quarter joint. Over the next 6 hours, they got tipsy and decided that this was a better spot than Malad Socials and so the down-downs should be done here. There was also a surprise for all those attending the run. 

The actual run- On D-Day, the hashers gathered at the meeting point. Wreckless provided entertainment by wearing his hash tee, front side back. He did do a small but erotic skin show while attempting to correct the wardrobe malfunction on the street. 

Soon after the erotic session, the fun was flagged off. 

The surprise- The hashers were immediately ushered to the newly inaugurated Metro Line and the run began with a ride in the Metro. Post the ride, the trail took them to the lovely backroad of Malad Mindspace, onto the Link Road, through Sunder Nagar, the narrow streets of Somvari Bazaar, Liberty Garden, and back to the Link Road; finally ending the trail at the 'discovered yesterday', Panchmukhi Bar and Restaurant. 

At the bar, beer and Old Monk started pouring from the glasses down our throats. Conversations started pouring from our mouths in the environment. A little laugh here, a loud curse there, giggles and smoke circles in the air, the hashers got merry. 

We were also joined by the cult builder, Cum-sulk-cunt for the down-downs. Yeah, she's made it a habit to ensure that she comes to Bombay for all our runs. Then she'd sleep till late, miss the run and attend the down-down sesh. Damn good trick, lady!

We also got a surprise visit from 'No Conditions Apply' who came to Bombay after spending a day at the Nash Hash in Bengaluru. 

And so, after a lovely morning of running a half-marked but beautiful trail set by the hares, down-downs at a local watering hole, and some memories made, some hashers called it a day, and some continued with their drinks. 

Until the next run, ON ON!

Run # 585 Sukoon Bungalow

 

Yipee! The blogs are back. 

So, the 20-odd hashers from Bombay and Poona turned up at this lovely bungalow in Khandala for Run # 585. Hared by Clit-oh-patra, Dr. Porn, and Cunt Ankita, the run was a 5+ click affair which involved, walking for 60% of the time, waiting outside a gate for 30% of the run duration, and pretending to enjoy a fruit beer for 10% of the time. Yes yes, where would the fun be if it were just a simple run. 

Anyway, here are a few more things to be excited about. Pune Hash is closing in on its 150th run and is planning something fun. Watch out for more details. They are super quick to reach this benchmark. A lot of questions were raised on how they reached this number. It seems they go grocery shopping at D-Mart and anything over 15 mins of walking is considered a run. We're trolling them as always. 

So back at Sukoon, conversation flew around the up-and-coming big hashing events across the globe.

Circle:

- Hares on the ice were applauded for their superb coordination skills. Yes, BH3 are a bunch of lazy ass runners. But making us wait outside a gate was new... Hats off! Overall, a fun day on the streets of Khandala. 

- Rear Entry was iced for getting hitched. Seriously, some guys have solid guts... Risk-takers I tell you. Our deepest condolences to Mr. Rear Entry

- We asked Don't Ask to sit on the ice and thanked her for providing us her crib for yet another beautiful Sunday morning. 

- Cunt Ankita has paid her dues from the time she's been dating Clit-oh-patra... Even gals have some superb daring. We acknowledged her courage and her professionalism. Cunt Ankita is now

CUM-SULK-CUNT.

(She said she's a cumsulkcunt consultant. That's all we know)

Clit-oh-patra was so happy with the possibility of celebratory sex, he bought a round of beer for everyone. We'll find out if he got lucky or shagged his way to sleep. 

With that yummy biryani was had by all and we wobbled back to our nests. 

On On to the December run!

Run # 575 Sukoon, Khandala

 They met, they ran, they drank, they went back home.

Run # 574, Independence Brewing Company, Andheri

 Sunday, November, 29th 2020.

Someone ate a bat and the whole world was under house arrest for most of 2020.

Eventually the world, slowly and gradually started stepping out with utmost safety and precaution. The Bombay Hash House Harriers also craved; and so they braved. Young and old and the non scared beer lovers stepped out of the house to brave a run in November. That's 8 months since the last run in Feb.

Osama and Bollywood Boobs on the trail

On the streets on Lokhandwala

Independence Brewing Company welcomed us with a great offer and open arms. So, we picked 15 hashers on a strict first come first serve basis and chalked out a run. Wait, I stand corrected. We didn't chalk anything out. We met at the gates of IBC on Sunday at 5pm and turned on our gadgets aka mobile phones. 

Then, we let Wackopedia lead the hares and hounds on a 4 km trail around the block as we followed his location on our mobile phones. Masks on and feet moving, we finished the simple trail in a little less than 90 mins and landed back at IBC.

Then started our journey with some of our favorite beers and ciders and some scrumptious food. We had not met in a while, so conversations flew naturally. Hashers spoke about the virus and how they waded through the pandemic. No circle, no ice, no songs this time. 

We are just getting into the groove of things. 

After 8 months, we got the feeling of walking out of the house in your running gear and crawling back in, after a few hours, a little tipsy and a lot more happier. 

ON ON!

Run # 573 Aumkar Homes, Karjat

 The 'DID NOT' run.

Ninja Turtle resurfaced as a hare for this one and with the company of Rupi and an Activa, marked a street run. I mean, we travelled over a 100 kms to run on the streets, right under the sun. I could have just run around my block and ended it at a local joint for a few drinks. But hashers as a species is known for all kinds of stupid.

This was a run where we did a lot of nothing. We were surrounded by lovely hills and an excellent trail opportunity but we DID NOT make use to it. The run was in direct relation with the places where a scooter would go. 

We DID NOT not finish the run too. Well, apart from the 2 FRB's, Dr. Porn and FUBAR. Yes! Don't rub your eyes. FUBAR was the FRB. The rest of the gang found their own trail after eating dust on the highway and made their way back. 

Wreckless did fall on the trail, tummy first on the ground. He came back with a black tee and a scratched knee.

Aumkar Homes, the down down venue, had a projector room. It was used only to stay away from the sun. No, we DID NOT make use of it to watch porn. 

Aumkar Homes also had a swimming pool. No, we DID NOT make good use of it. While some Hashers shaded in the room, a few chilled by the pool in the only tiny space which had some shade. 

Hares: 

Since we could not, DID NOT, give credit where credit was due AND we could not manage to put the scooter on ice, only

 Ninja sat on ice and we sang to him. 3 out of 10 for the 5km street run. 1 pt for Activa, 1 point for Rupi (Co hare) and 1 pt for Wrecky falling down. 

Tarang was iced for entertaining a few hashers who came by train. Tarang boarded a train after 15 years and the number of questions he asked to make sure he 

was at the right place deserved his ass to be iced. 

Dr. Porn and FUBAR were next on the ice. As mentioned, the only 2 losers to do the entire trail. 

Fubar stayed on the ice. He 

bought new shoes and he drank from one of them. 

Ninja and Rupi made it to the ice again for the venue sponsorship. 

Rupi had a lovely first experience with the ice. So he moved to whiskey later. 

While we did not have any arrangements for biryani, the hosts got us yummy egg bhurji and bread. 

The sun still shined as we headed back. 

On On!

9th Jan (Thursday)

Thursday went by easy as Bh3(bombay hash) came prepared for the madness which would ensue the resort over the weekend. All we had to do was finish marking the run for friday, check if the beers were in place, make sure the beers are getting chilled by trying them every hour. We also spent the entire evening listening to music and drinking beers. All this while, we were checking how much beer needed to be consumed to not feel cold. Then it turned out to be not so cold. So we drank to beat the heat. Anyway, Beer QC, check.

10th january (Friday)

Just before noon, tuk tuks started pulling in the resort gates and hashers poured in. In a not so polite fashion, hashers finished their registrations, wore their wrist bands and went straight to the bar. "It's beer time", said someone. I guess by lunch, the entire team of UTropicana realised that it was going to be a fun fun weekend. 

Run # 1

After settling the luggage in their rooms, hashers gathered in the lawn to inaugurate the first run of Nash Hash 2020. Hared by the bawa gang of Bombay Hash (Baby Dick, Gimme More, Hand Job and Wreckless) with a minimal assistance from Fubar and Half a Peacock, runners were taken on a trip to the surroundings of the resort. 3 superbly marked trails led Hashers through the rough, the bush, the heat, the road, back to the resort. A good 8km+ workout; perfect thirst builder for all the beers to follow.

Back at the resort, the mood had started to build for the perfect evening. Bhajiyas started doing rounds along with beer. Music blared from the massive BT speaker as Hashers lay on the grass and soaking in the shade and the slight nip in the air. An aerial view would have disclosed a sea of people wearing Kotak Mahindra tees and having a good time. 

Pusher honked the horn and the circle began. Algebra opened her box of hash songs and everyone sangalong, atleast hummed out the tunes.The circle concluded with a 100 hashers singing the hash anthem in unison. 

7.30pm

The DJ had slowly started pepping up the music while hashers chilled in the lawn, all decked up, sipping whiskeys and beers and what not. UTropicana made a bonfire and also cooked Popti, a earthen pot filled with meat and veggies and cooked in the bonfire. 

9.00pm.

The lawn turned into a dance floor. Hashers got a taste of Bollywood. People with 2 left feet could be seen dancing like MJ meets Prabhudeva. 

11.00pm

The lawn was now a bed for some, while a chill zone for others. The music had stopped officially but beats could be heard from a distance. 

Midnight

The after party had broken loose in Villa Number. 8 which continued till the wee hours of morning and then more. 

11th Jan, (Saturday) 

Post breakfast, people broke into a sing and dance, skits and what not. A row of sailors went sailing in the lawn and came back with multiple orgasms(check Instagram for video)). Beer games got people chugging beers and running crooked, while arm wrestlers argued over who won, wait what? 

Simultaneously, an impromptu volleyball match between Bombay and Bangalore started trending. We did a best of 3 and each team won a match. Grand Finale time was cut short as Bombay Hash had planned a skit. So it was decided that the finale would be played during Monsoons Madness (watch out if early bird tkts to the Finale).

The hosts performed a lovely skit called 'The Fountain of Youth' (Check Instagram for video). Never knew spitting water on someone would be so much fun. 

Famished by the time lunch was served, we were still in high spirits for the run. 

Run # 2 (Bangalore Hash 700th run)

3.00pm

Hashers gathered in the lawn. Today was a sea of SBI tees. 

3.30pm

The runners flagged off. Marked by Shivaji, Wackopedia and a team from Bangalore hash, the run was divided into S M and L. You could make out who partied hard by seeing which route they chose. Lol

6pm. 

The circle today was a PG rated so no cameras were allowed. 

A lot of announcements and applauds happened before the Hash Anthem concluded the circle. Once again, Algebra entertained with a lot of songs. 

The Party

Today was a Hawaiian theme night. Pretty colours and outfits filled the lawn. There were also numerous skits performed by all the participating chapters. It went on for a while, to a point where we may have passed the deadline for dance and music. The resort Management, in love with us by now, extended the deadline and we did get the dancefloor towards the end. 

Midnight

The after party at Villa No. 8 continued. Only Tonite, there was more attendance. And the party went on and on and on... 

12th Jan (Sunday)

The hangover run was a treasure hunt within the resort premises. Dr. Porn did a fantastic job with the TH. 

Post lunch, check outs started and soon, 2 ferries left the jetty for the sail back to Bombay. But who said the party was over? 

Post lubes happened at a Taproom, closer to the airport and beers kept pouring till as long as they could. 

On On!

Run # 569 Neembada (Wreckless Hideout)

We couldn't stop laughing at the sight of these veterans taking a dip (namesake) in the swimming pool. The water looked very inviting and just as I had a thought of taking a dip; the veterans got out of the pool, removed their clothes (they were wearing pajamas and tees in the pool) and started washing them in the bloody pool. "Beda gard ho inn buddho ka".

And that marked the inauguration of Run # 569. 

However depressing the view of the pool was, the run was exactly what was expected for the last run of the year; all thanks to the wonderful haring effort by the local (we paid him) and the absolute gem of a marking done by Shivaji and Fubar. :P Hashers loved the coutryside, the trail, the lake, the greenery, the jungle, the everything. 

Unanimously, we got 13/10 for this one. Happy 2019 folks!

Back at Neembada, Energiser Bunny could not stop talking about his "apparently" big battery. The hash with it's beloved senior hashers gets entertaining run by run. Also, there were more bitings than we could ever think of. Zafar also distributed some tees from Bangkok hash to the hashers he hates the most. 

The conversations mostly circled around the upcoming Nash Hash 2020 which is hosted by Bombay Hash. Grown ass people started talking like excited teenagers who experienced orgasm for the first time. Well, such is the demand for that event. 

Circle:

Hares Shivaji and Fubar got a 23 sec ovation for this run. The previous record is 21 secs held by Fubar for solo haring.

Wreckless got on the ice for giving us this wonderful venue to run from. 

Wreckless and Vishal got on the ice again for venue and KF
