The China Hash House Harriers is a “drinking club with a running problem”!
Based in Taipei, this multicultural club is open to men and women (preferable young and attractive for the women, to be honest ) of all ages, who like to have a good time on Sunday afternoons, running through lovely forests, farms and streams with many friends, followed off by a good bit of beer drinking, laughter and bullshit.
What makes someone a good candidate for the CH3?
• Enjoys getting to know new people of many backgrounds in a spirit of friendship
• Enjoys burning off 1000 calories on a run and then drinking them back in suds
• Is not easily offended by rude words, or sexist / racist / ageist / classist / homophobic terminology
• Has an ego that can recover from bruising
• Shows no fear in the face of a hangover
• Would like to get to know some beautiful little bits of backcountry in the Taipei area, on trails prepared by experienced guides
• Able to crawl, hobble, walk, or run for an hour or two over under and through various types of soil, mud, rock and brush
Come to this week’s China Hash House Harriers (CH3) BIKINI BEACH RUN at Qianshuiwan beach in Sanzhi township!
Sunday August 1st, starting at 2:30 PM. Babes! Boobs! Bikinis on the beach! Fit dudes that resemble the cast of “Spartacus: Blood and Sand”! Sore feet! New friends!
An epic run with SHITLOADS OF ICE COLD BEER!!!
This week, yours truly will be the run-leader, or “hare”, along with two alluring minxes. The run is within 20-30 minutes of Danshui MRT, and costs 200 NTD for participation, which includes beer but not transpo.
I invite my fellow Forumosans to check out this great, fun and somewhat wild club.
Chest rugs, I mean that kind of fur! Last time I accidentally bumped into a Hash’s run at The Mystery Nameless Park my eyes ate a lot of ice cream. Running is really good for your health.
Girls with fur, that’s me, Latin girls ya know. bikini or no bikini needed
The weather is moderate and there’s a good run this Sunday, very nearby for the China Hash House Harriers, the drinking club with a running problem.
This run will be from Muzha MRT to Linguang MRT, over that hump of hill south of Elephant Mountain, so it’s easy to get to, get home from, and impossible to get lost.
Here’s the deal:
Meet at Muzha MRT station slightly before 2PM.
Follow the flour markings to the beer truck and groups of sporty, hung over people.
Pay 200NT (covers your beer later) and get into your running gear.
Put your backpack on the little blue beer truck. Set off with the rest of the pack around 2:30pm. Follow the marked trail and stick with an experienced hasher, if you are nervous. Have a wonderful time running and hiking through physically beautiful and culturally interesting backwoods areas. Arrive 1-2 hours later at the destination, near Linguang MRT.
Hang out with new friends and drink beer for a few hours.
Go home thinking, “Shit! Why didn’t I do this before?”
Come back another time: the 2nd time is free!
All are welcome. You do not need to be a real runner to participate; many walk. But if you are competitive you will find some serious people to contend with at the front of the pack.
