Run 1900: All is revealed!

In a complete break with tradition, Saturday's SH3 1900th run will take place at the Tung Jaeng Restaurant on the new Yala road and along with with Curry in a Hurry who has generously sponsored a T shirt for the occasion, the hares will be Egghead and Only a Yolk. There will be free beer and a buffet dinner to follow with Karaoke for the audibly challenged.

The details are:
Songkhla Hash House Harriers' run #1900, Saturday November 25th, (times as below),
Hares: Curry in a Hurry, Egghead and Only a Yolk.

Misdirections: From The Kao Seng intersection take the old Yala road for 11k and turn right at the Ang Thong intersection into the new Yala road for 1.4k to the Tung Jaeng restaurant on the left at   7.086757° N 100.623507° E. If you are coming from the Ko Yo intersection take the the new Yala road towards the Ang Thong intersection and take the final U turn (just before Ang Thong) and go back westwards for about 1.3k. (Directions from Hatyai will be appended as a comment below).

Run times: The long run will be A-B so to make sure that everybody is back in good time, the transport to the A site will leave Tung Jaeng at 4:00 p.m. (if anyone thinks they may be late, give either Egghead (0819691227) or Only a Yolk (089 6546541) a call. The short run will start and finish at Tung Jaeng so will begin at about 4:15 p.m, and latecomers will be directed to the out trail.

Registration/T shirts: Thanks to Curry in a Hurry for generously sponsoring the event T shirt. As a result, registration will be 100 Baht for everyone (guests and new runners included) with all kids at 50 Baht. The T shirts will be free to named SH3 runners (including those who are named on the day) who are at the run (no exceptions on that one!) and who registered in advance before the deadline. If there are any left after that they will be given out to any named SH3 runners at the run who didn't pre-register, or will be available to guests at 200 Baht each.

Beer/Dinner: Thanks to HH3, Sex Sprinter and Palm Job for sponsoring 5 cases of beer which will be available from the beer truck together with the contents of the truck which has been "bought" by SH3 Hash Cash for the occasion. There will also be a beer stop on both runs sponsored by the hares and if all that runs out then we can buy beer from the restaurant at 70 Baht a bottle (Chang and Leo). Dinner will be a buffet and should start at around 6:30 p.m.

Hatyai H3's run on Sunday will be from in the general region of the football field at Tung Ngai in Poonakan road.

  1. Don't forget, if anyone needs to get a message to anyone, or everyone, on the hash or at the run, you can use Facebook Messenger and somebody will pass it on. This applies to anyone getting lost or injured as well, and having to rely on the recipient having their phone on them.

    1. If you are not yet on, or want to be added to, the Songkhla Hash group in Messenger, let me or someone in the group know.

    1. Quote from the Oxford shorter dic "A follower or underling of a powerful person, especially a servile or unimportant one." Synonyms include Lackey, underling, flunky... well you should understand that then!

  5. Directions from Hatyai, in case anyone is not sure: From the Ko Hong traffic lights (junction of Kanchanawanit/Petkasem Rd. go 11k and turn right at the Khuan Hin traffic lights. Go 4k then take the left turn just after the school (i.e. straight ahead, not following the road round to the right) then follow the road for 2k until you hit the new Yala road. Turn right and go about 2.8k then take the U turn just before the Ang Thong intersection and come back 1.3k to the restaurant. If you are coming from Poonakan, then head North from Wat Keow Kloy for 2k to the Tha Kham intersection then turn right (East) for about 5.5k and turn left into the road leading to Kao Long then follow it for 600m and take the right fork through the village, across two crossroads past Wat Kao Lam for another 4k until you hit the old Yala road. Turn left for 1k then left at Ang Thong into the NYR and go 1.4 to Thung Jaeng on the left.
