The South Lantau Hash House Harriers is a hash kennel based on Lantau Island, in the New Territories of Hong Kong.
Every 2nd Saturday of the month, an official numbered trail will be laid on some part of the island, or a nearby island (not Australia, dear!), come hell or high water and most importantly; followed by cold liquids.
All are welcome (Males and Females, Old and Young, and Animals – even pets). The hares set different routes for the Wimps and for the Rambos, so if you aren’t a runner have no fear, and beer is always near.
The run usually starts around 4pm, and takes an hour to an hour and a half. As is custom, after the run there will be a circle, where cold beverages will be consumed and possibly even some raucous behavior and mildly colorful insults may be traded.
To support this unworthy cause, the cost of the hash is $50 for adults and $20 for kids — this cost includes all the cold beers you can possibly attempt to drink afterwards.
SLH3 will be all about having fun! We’re certainly not a charity, but we intend, in future, to cover our costs and donate any surplus to worthy South Lantau causes.
SO…
If you have half a mind to join…you’re over-qualified! (Did you have to Google inauguration or libations? Yes?-You’re in!)
If you’re super-fit and looking for an action challenge… you’re misguided! (Seek professional help! I know a good physio too – strong hands!!)
But…
If you know how to work up a quick thirst and don’t take exercise (or yourself) too seriously, then you may meet some like-mindless friends.
Rule #1: There Are no Rules!
Rule #2: We are Not Responsible!
Rule #3 etc: When in doubt, refer to Rule # 1!
Should the ‘need’ arise, special dispensations will be granted for extra numbered runs on other dates, such as: ‘Look it’s a Full Moon’, ‘I need a drink’, ‘My wife left me’, ‘Your wife hooked up with me’, ‘I got new running shoes, which I need everyone to see’, or any other really useful excuse!
Guidance and Protocols will be explained on the day by the Hares, who will closely follow Rule #1 & #2.
You can also find SLH3 on Facebook — see how techno savvy we are!!
