    Some teams did better than us, but just consider their averages ages compared to ours.

    15th January 2017

    Poison wood: avoid it like the plague if you are sensitive to it.  The colour of the leaves can vary from pale green to dark green and even purple.  The plants above are small, but they can grow much taller.  The active compound is urushiol which is used traditionally to make Japanese lacquer - by convicts at one time, I believe.  Brushing against the plant leaves a deposit on the skin, which leads to an unpleasant skin reaction.  Since the compound is oily it is not very easy to wash off, but using concentrated shampoo, body-wash, or washing-up liquid seems to work very well for many people, if applied promptly after contact.  An antihistamine cream (such as Banophen) seems to help a lot too.  I am not sensitive, but I did have some itchy bumps from cutting a lot of it down whilst setting a run.  

    Run 2000

    Yes Hashers, it won't be long now!  Watch this space for details as they emerge! 

    Technically run 2000 should fall on 5th January 2020.  Since Hashers rarely let facts stand in the way, festivities will start on Friday the 10th of January 2020 with run 1999 and continue through the weekend with run 2000 on the Sunday.  It is rumoured that their might be a party on the Saturday.  

    We hope that Hashers everywhere will come and help us celebrate! 

    (Sorry if anyone has already bought their tickets based on the 3rd.  LOL)

    Welcome to the homepage of the Nassau Hash House Harriers, (Nassau, Bahamas). If you're in town visiting - on a vacation or for business - why not join us for a run or two? If you live here why not become a member of our friendly band? The Nassau Hash meets once every week for a run (or a walk).  After the event we have a few beers at a local bar - the "On In". In winter we meet on Sundays at 4pm (or, on occasion at 10:30am), and in summer we meet on Mondays at 6:30pm.  Contact us  by e-mail for further information. 

     

    ABOUT HASHING

    The Hash House Harriers (abbreviated to HHH or H3, or referred to simply as hashing) is an international group of non-competitive running social clubs. An event organized by a club is known as a hash or hash run, with participants calling themselves hashers or hares and hounds.

    The objectives of the Hash House Harriers as recorded on the club registration card dated 1950:

     

    • To promote physical fitness among our members

    • To get rid of weekend hangovers

    • To acquire a good thirst and to satisfy it in beer

    • To persuade the older members that they are not as old as they feel (old bastards)
