Dooty calls!

If you didn't make it to the last couple of runs of 2017 (and you are not alone) then it may have escaped your notice that they were, to put it mildly, lightly attended. But with Christmas, New Year and the rainy season (hopefully) behind us, there really is every reason to gird your loins, put on a pair of old runners and join SH3 this weekend to burn off a few of those excess pounds you've put on and then to put them all back on again after the run with the aid of a few beers.

More than that, if you know of anyone who has ever had half a mind to give the hash a try (and you only need half a mind to do it!) then this is the weekend to use all your persuasive powers to prevail upon them to make it this Saturday. There is even the possibility of a pick-up/drop off for runners living in Hatyai, details of which will be given out later if that seems like a good idea. And for those needing a ride from Songkhla the beer truck will be leaving the Hot Bread Shop as always at 2:30 p.m.

Details of the run are:
Songkhla Hash House Harriers' run #1906, Saturday January 6, 2018, 4:00 p.m.
Hare: Egghead
Misdirections: From the Ko Yo intersection take the old Hatyai road for 4.7k and turn left for 9.6k (1.6k beyond Wat Keow Kloy in the direction of Wat Nern Pijit) to the runsite on the right at 7 00.702°N  100 34.932°E. (From Hatyai, get to Tha Kham and go South for 3.6k, or get to Wat Keow Kloy via Poonakan road and turn right for 1.6k.)

No news yet of HH3's run on Sunday so details will be posted later here and/or on the fb Messenger thread.

Footnote:
Nice try Beaver! But no cigar. Incidentally I'm taking the opportunity to steal some more of you favorite country as you're not going to be here. Tee hee hee!

  1. Plugging 7 00.702°N 100 34.932°E into Google Earth comes up with a site about 400m SW of Chonburi RR Station. In which case I'll be able to make it!

    1. See above. I suggest you update your version of Google Earth!

    2. Really, just go to Google Maps and type in "7 00.702°N 100 34.932°E" and see where it takes you. Perhaps a subliminal hint from the hare that he wants to go off on a naughty weekend in Pattaya?

      (Hint: the degree sign needs to be immediately after the 7 and the 100. If you put it at the very end it confuses Mr. Google.)
