Rehashed20101225 Short Circuit

Run: 910 Hare: Short Circuit Venue: Jalan Reko Cohares: ...

It was a cloudy Christmas day with a small group for the run.

The reality was that the run has been ‘instructed’ to be short but it was too short that the runners came in walking after 35mins!

Short Circuit was quick to set up the makan stall with roast ducks, fried noodles, vaddey, curry puffs and watermelon while Chickadee was sponsoring some tasty banana leaf pre-packed nasi lemak.

Circle was conducted short and sweet.






OnOn was held at JPS Jit's house.

Run: 909 Hare: Lee Hoon Kong Venue: Bandar Technology Cohares: Bulldozer, Angel

The run was at Bandar Tech, how different can it be from other runs in this area. Well, the first three going in hit a different trail and had to do a DIY. Then, a small group including one with a 'troublesome' knee tried a shortcut and came out after the the back pack.

FROPs were out in 1hr 20mins, a few seconds before the DIY trio.

On On at Ah Wai's cafe.

Run: 908 Hare: Micheal Venue: Kinrara Cohares: ...

(No run report or pix - Holiday season - lah Saved by No Hair again - better late than never)

The run started with a walk on the yet to complete road and cut through the fences downhill towards the river. The trail was muddy and was greeted with some mumbles. We finally got into some thicker growths and No Hair was walking off paper on a path while the pack complained and Bulldozer was heard calling out “Dei, follow paper lah! Not follow people!”.

Kelam Kabut and guest Diam-Diam were on trail leading up a slippery slope while the rest was waiting in line for their turn. King Kong was about to queue and Diam-Diam was heard calling “Checking!!!”. Warranti was quick and ran back to where No Hair was to break the check. It was a climb that had guests Chap Mai and Ah Soon and Micheal gasping for air.

Upon reaching a clearing, the trail went on right and downhill instead of following the trail straight up. The runners came back up to the trail to meet Blood Donor, JPS and Micheal (SCBs) coming out of the 2nd check. Still continuing on the uphill trail, the check was broken. Finally, at the top junction, the 3rd check was broken easily towards a trail on the left. The remnants of Mother Hash papers got No Hair thinking that it was another grueling run following last 2 weeks’ run in Mother.

The trail brought the pack down, up and down again for a few cycles that almost everyone lost count on the hill climbs and downs but finally after crossing a creek the runners knew it was close but with a last hurdle, high climb to exit into the clearcuts just after the run site.

The hashers came in one after the other except for Angel, Kong and KFC that turned back. Most completed the run which had JPS drenched in sweat and Song Lau singing too. Hare Michael’s comment before the run was, “here? Where got hills?”, came back exhausted with Blood Donor. Tangki Air, Yee, Suck It were back huffing and puffing while Meow and Kwee Wong came in later.

Kiki was back earlier after went on trail late with Kilat and Short Circuit. Kilat was out but Short Circuit was not, so were GM King Kong and a guest, MC Chan. The 3 got back around 9pm!

Good weather FROP 1hr20mins

Run: 907 Hare: JPS Venue: Jalan Kajang-Dengkil Cohares: Short Circuit

The drizzling stopped just a few hours before the run and everyone was jumping for joy! We were late after getting ready and further waited for another late comer as the InTrail papers were messed by someone.

The run started with a walk uphill into the OP and the first check was connected without picking up paper towards the check on the opposite direction. We were hot on the scent and headed on to get the back pack and finally heard them on the opposite hill doing a check.

We finally caught up with the back pack and I sped on to get the runners. The last check with a back check got me chasing the front with only minutes away and they were hiding their tails, fearing a big bite. We got back on the home trail for a good lengthy run.

Just as we were enjoying the night, it rained throughout the night!

The makan was good - nasi beriyani gam by Black Maria Catering Services, no singing due to the rain but everyone hung around to chat and bullshit till the beers ran out!

Run: 906 Hare: Long John Silver Venue: Broga Cohares: Kiki, Cowlin, Sunny

As the hashers arrived at the runsite, the sky opend up for a heavy downpour. Parking was on the roadside to give way for the trucks going to the chicken farm.Luckily the rain stopped just before OnOn was called. In trail led along the road for about 500m, then turned off to the left following a trail into the rubber plantation where the first check was laid.

Dipstick, NoHair and some hashers went checking in the rubber, but could not find the paper, no thanks to the heavy rain which either washed away the paper or rendered it not visible. Finally OnOn was called at the back going down a slope into a muddy area and again paper could not be found. After some more confusion, Chickadee and Silent Dragon were already planning to find their own way, when finally Kelam Kabut found the paper leading to the right.

The trail then took the runners into the bushes, across a small stream and went up the hill. A check here was quickly broken on the left and from there it was a more or less a steady climb (or should I say crawl) up until the grassy area and then right to the hilltop.

It was almost dark when the trail went up to the second and then the third hill where another check was waiting. Dipstick moved on to the 3rd hill but the check was broken somewhere on the second hill down to the left, into the bushes and soon hit an extremely slippery concrete trail which left many hashers skidding and falling on their way down.

It took some time to descend and get on to the flat trail to the parking area. First runner out in 2:05, last runner out about 20 minutes later was Dipstick, mumbling: “too dark to run…”.

(Webmaster's note: Knowing Bandit's 'fondness' for hills, we asked him to let us have his thoughts of the run and he sent the following. Some words, phrases had to be peeped)

Despite the heavy rain where visibility was reduced to just two cars ahead, managed to get to the runsite just as the last few were going in (some think I purposely come late to avoid a climb). Caught up with the back pack at the 1st check which was still not broken. Tried a back check and found torn paper leading down to the rentice where Kelam Kabut was calling the wayward harriets back to the correct trail.

As the girls came up, one of them asked me "can you sound the horn louder and longer?". Seeing my puzzled face, she continued "Billy No Hair, he did not come yet." (the picture on the right, the harriet calling out for her beau.)

As the papers took us under canopy, our 'environmentalist' friend, Kelam Kabut, stopped to admire something and then he called out if I had a camera. So I obliged and took the pix on the left for him. Yeah, that is not something one sees often.

Ok, about the run, the first hill okay, 2nd hill a crawl but 'boleh tahan', 3rd hill, #@$*%&#, 4th hill, grrrrr &*$*@#%$@#, 5th hill neeeah meh #@%&%, 6th hill, 7th hill, nak mampus. When you thought that would have been the end, the 'bukit botak' standing majestically beckoned in the twilight

The descend was equally torturous and slow but managed to reach base camp around 8.30pm.

((Webmaster's note: For Bandit, one climb was equivalent to 3 hills; one hilltop and two foothills.)
