The back of beyond

Click to make it big enough to read with the aid of high powered glasses!
This week's SH3 run is from the old football field behind Sai Kao village - one of our more difficult runsites to describe but actually not that far from Songkhla as the GPS flies. The map above may inspire some creative route finding, but the signed route will be:
Songkhla Hash House Harriers' run #1736, Saturday, September 20th 2014
Hares: Egghead and doggies
Misdirections: From the Kao Seng intersection take the old Yala road for 16k and turn right just before Wat Kun Thong. Go 3.5k and turn left just after the big tree, then go 800m (straight ahead at 150m) to the run site on the old football field.
Too soon for any news of the HH3 run on Sunday but that will be added later. Meanwhile it may be as well to mention that HH3 are intending to hold an outstation run on the weekend of 11/12 October in Satun. The cost of the weekend will vary between 200 and 1000 Baht per person depending upon your HH3 status. Details of the weekend are on the HH3 facebook page in Thai (https://www.facebook.com/groups/589896937720491/permalink/777209432322573/): Expect a car rally on the way there and kayaking on Sunday in addition to a run on Saturday.

  3. Could someone be so kind as to post an extract of the Facebook page from the HH3 site regarding the outstation run. Apparently only friends of the HH3 site are able to view this page, apart from of course, the entire world's intelligence community, of which sadly I'm not a part of.

    1. I nominated you as a trusty last Sunday but you must have upset the fat administrator as you haven't been approved yet. I've made another request today - perhaps he will relent and accept you into the favored elite this time. I'll e mail you the Hatyai stuff as I don't want to knock Owen off the #1 spot!
