If you would like to assist on a future run, please email our Hare Raiser saigonrazor@gmail.com
We're always looking for volunteers to help set runs. If you've never set a run before, fear not! We will help you with suggestions for good Hashing country, our very own Hare manual with guidelines for setting a run and, if needed, an experienced Hare to assist you. For virgin Hares, there will be a really sexy red Hare Shirt.
Hares, please let the Hare Raisers and the Hash Geek have the following information as early as possible before the run:
For general information, comments, suggestions or requests:
For Hash Run information:
We meet every Sunday at the Caravelle Hotel in District 1, HCMC. The bus leaves promptly at 2:00 pm on most days. It's best to arrive at around 1:30 with the bus returning usually around 7 to 8 pm. Bring extra clothes, a great sense of humor and a thirst for some beer wouldn't hurt. Do not forget to bring some money for the hash fees (VND200,000 for expats, VND150,000 for locals, 50,000 for ankle-biters.)
On On and we hope to see you on Sunday.
All runs at the Saigon Hash are special, but some are more special than others. Make a note in your diary for the following special special runs: 26 Feb: The First Ever Special Vietnamese Run; 11 March: St. Patrick's Day; 25 March:Vietnamese King's birthday run; 1st April: April Fool's day;
29 April: Dutch National day party (bring your cloggies); 6 May: Vietnam Liberation Day; 3 June: Queen's Diamond Jubilee Run (of the British Empire, or what is left of it).
Don't miss this Sunday's run as Vietnamese hashers are planning their best run ever. There will be a number of funny games and gifts for Hashers who join in the games which will make some funny and crazy movies to post on You Tube. As usual, they will prepare a lot of lovely local finger food and one special thing about this run is our sponsor Johnnie Wanker who will bring two bottles of Johnnie Walker for the circle.
Normally, SH3 organises only one 50 seater bus in front of the Caravelle, although this Sunday, we are wondering whether MMC should book another bus for Hashers to attend this special run. So put the date in your diary, set your alarm on Sunday and come as early as possible so MMC can easily make a decision about another bus.
And "Don't forget your camera"

After arriving at the pristine wilderness site of the run and and inaudible briefing as usual by the physically and mentally challenged hares the hashers set off on the A to B run. Approximately 6K walk and 10 K run through virgin territory which was a pleasant change. All hashers completed the run with only a few mishaps by the usual uncoordinated few. Back at the bus after social drinking and eating the circle was called by HRH Head Mistress fresh back from a "le tour debacle" in Myanmar Religious Advisor Appendictome. Virgins called into the centre - total 10 Coming from all over the place Flaps Up and Down iced for delaying the bus while shopping Run report - by Shithouse - " beautiful walk" score 3 Walk report - by Stray Pussy - "beautiful walk score 2 Total amazing five Juicy Chew iced not sure what forl but obviously deserved it.

If you've never hashed before, you'll find the Saigon Hash a great way to exercise, meet people and get out of the city. Each week, we offer a run or a power-walk in different locations in the countryside around Ho Chi Minh City. No booking is necessary. Just roll up on Sunday afternoon and hop on the bus.
You don't need to bring much. For runners, running gear is all you need. Walkers need, above all, comfortable walking shoes (High heels are NOT recommended). On hot days, you may wish to wear a hat and use sunscreen. In addition, you'll need your run fee (VND180,000 for expats, VND100,000 for locals, 10,000 for ankle-biters) and optionally a change of clothes. For more information e-mail us at the address above.
