Bangalore Hash House Harriers
28 years and still running... Its the Bangalore chapter of the drinking club with a running problem. We run on (almost) once a month somewhere in the countryside 20-50 km from the centre of town and occasionally indulge in outstation runs and Hash events. |
Run 675 - Gora Greek Agora Run
|
4th March 2018 -
Run 675 was more of a Holi themed evening rather than just a hash run. Hashers started trickling in at 3:30 p.m. to savour Fratelli and Thandai and getting their faces painted with Holi color., and those whose "Dill Maange MOre" joined the unhappy hour of buying Nash hash branded beer before the run commenced at 4:30 p.m. Ramesh and Jasleen did a meticulous job of registering the arrivals (nearly 60 of them) and selling the beer coupons and doling out the dinner coupons. Piyush and David managed the welcome drinks counter - with the wine and Thandai gulped down in no time and Rajkumar adding a potent intoxicant to the Thandai. Deepa and Sunita did a great job of selling hash trash. Raw Sex avoided the color, saying he is allerfgic to it. Virgin Ragini-Spurvi wowed everyone with her straight from the studio evening dress while Cyber maid a big bang entrance with a unique Hash style. Hares, Shaggy Motor Mouth - Gora, Robin, Vivek and Jasleen were called into the circle to start the run. Hashers went through a short countryside walk with runners asking for more - but given the days theme, the hares can be forgiven - especially with the GM having assisted them! Back at the resort - the festivities started.With beer, cold drinks, amber fluids and snacks at the hash bar ably manned by Sunita, Kevin and Jasleen. The circle commenced with hashers choice of electing Cyber as the best dressed hasher - winning a Prestige Microwave Cooker, Ragini as the first runner up getting a Nash hash gym bag and Patrick for the worst dressed hasher getting a thermos flask. The hares were iced for "Gora Greek Agora" Run. Virgins - Sanchali, Sasha, Meenu, Sonal and Divya were baptised into the hash by icing them. Ragini-Spurvi refused to sit on the ice, but happily in Polish Bums lap who sat on the ice. The male virgins Pallab, Banu and Patrick got their turn too.. A quick announcement of the outstation run next month at Sakleshpur was also done followed by the hash hymn. Giveaways of Nash hash trash were given to several hashers. Hashers had a sumptuous catered dinner organised by Robin. And the party started winding down after 7:30 p.m. Special thanks to the following : Hares - Gora, Robin, Vivek and absentia hare Jasleen for the short trail. Robin, Sasha and Sonal for the color coordinated organic color smearing and Navya for giving it a miss and narrowly escaping major injury through a fallen palm branch - speedy recovery wishes.
