Run: 919 Hare: Ah Siaw Reject Venue: Betong / Villaraya Cohares: (local) No Hair, Yee Mai (foreign) ...
The hare had his run in Betong, Thailand, leaving the rest who could not make the trip. I was assigned to help him set his local run and a small crowd was expected to show up. So, we were late to our own time and after getting ready and finally able to start, we went off at 4:20pm.
We started with the climb headed towards the clearcuts and climbed into the jungle midway for some canopy shade. The climb was slippery till the offtracks and following downhill till the OP. A right turn, we got into more OP and went uphill till the high tension pylon. I then lead them for the steep downhill till the fish farm ponds where a check there had the pack confused.
I went left towards the long gradient uphill trail in between V-shaped foothills. We went up till the end of the trail and made the rocky climb to reach the top trail. At that time, Chickadee called to inform not to set the trail too long as there were only 2 of them at the run site! Well, we had gone too far to make it a short run and could not change anything at that point, so we went on ahead to finish setting the run.
We just followed on through with the trails and cut short at some point to make it shorter but still it was a long run back. We reached the run site around 6:50pm and waited till the first runner came in at 7:45pm, Dipstick! The other 3 were Pengsan, Cha Cha and Long John Silver, while Chickadee, Blood Donor and Gary came back with Dipstick’s rescue car around 8:20pm.
The run was about 8km long with a 5-km home trail run! Long here, short there (Betong)! Circle was very short to adjourn to Zuan Kee Restaurant for good sponsored makan! The party ended when the restaurant closed at midnight!

Run: 918 Hare: Tangki Air Venue: Taman Wawasan Puchong Cohares: Liew, Meow
A new run site for HLH4 and some ‘over-clever’ members ended up taking the full effort to get to know Puchong for an hour before reaching the run site! Luckily the weather was nice and there were some crowd doing their own walks here like Bukit Hatamas. The beerman was too carried with ‘get to know Puchong’ that he did not get to run site till 6:40pm! Wasted my 20mins waiting for him.
The run started with a walk away from the well trodden tracks and the slippery slopes provided some energy-sapping spins. We were tricked and the trail went downhill but climbed back up with another longer spin on the slippery slopes again! We finally got to the top to hear the front pack checking for paper and broken with a back check. The trail then got back into jungle trails with some long and slippery down hill till the river crossing. As expected, we had to climb back up on the opposite hill and with a longer and steeper climb.
The trails and the jungle were ‘clean’ and the views were magnificent! There are lots of people walk up here to enjoy nature and to exercise but many have not seen hashers and was wondering what we were doing. We climbed and reached the top to realize the hare gave us another torture up ahead! Nice running trails down hill and up, round the hills and back, climbed up and down – just about the few hills before we finally thought that we were on home trail.
We reached a peak where most trekkers would stop for a ‘tea break’, we headed west to a down hill trail. It was not that easy, the hare brought us climbing again a few more hills before the final downhill trail to get back to run site, to finish the run in an hour. Email was back about 10mins later with the front middle pack while the last was Juicy Jessie, who went on trail late, in at 8pm. It was another 20mins later that we realized Cock Pain and U-I were on trail when he came in!
OnOn at site with Tangki Air's home cooked makan - all went licin-licin, beers also licin-licin!

Run: 917 Hare: Joey Venue: Sg Jelok Cohares: No Hair, YeeMai, Silent Dragon
The co-hares had planned to set a similar trail as set here by another hash chapter recently. After all, two of them also enjoy runs with that hash on a weekly without fail basis, not to mention that they are also key people in that kennel. So they set off to set a 12km run.
Perhaps, one thing they did not bargain for was, Mother (Nature) was on the side of some HLH4 members. The hares laid the trail, going straight at the first fork and crossing the shallow stream for the warm up climb. Hitting the clearing at the top, they planned to swing left for the long loop to hit home from the back, but it was not to be.
The skies opened up, clouds crashed against each other and flashes of lightning gave their warnings to the hares. In fact, No Hair had never seen Yee Mai enjoying so much the spectacular show put on by the electrical storm.
Coming to their senses, they decided to go right, through the mud in the just replanted rubber, throwing in just three checks and straight up to the topmost for the long downhill home trail. The last check took a while to break which slowed down the hashers.
Dipstick was FROP just after the hour with Blood Donor pulling the Bee out about forty mins later. The scheduled hare did the run together with others.
The initial few hashers going in to the runsite were held back for a while by swift flowing waters that cut across the road in near the quarry.

About 30+ members and a couple of guests turned up for this Virgin hare's run. Kiki (pussy) called On On and led the hashers through the usual trail by the water tank.
The falsie and then the back check at the 1st check kept the group together. The 2nd check was similar, with a falsie and back check.
The other checks were also deceptive enough to keep the hashers with the FROP out in 1hr 5mins and the last about 5 mins later. There were about six drain crossings and at one of which, YM sat down with a thud to feel the water.

Run: 912 Hare: Nokia Venue: Sri Haneco Cohares: ...
The weather was find but the turnout was small due to the Batang Kajang 888 celebration run at Broga and Ch5's 1st anniversary run in Cheras where a number of our members went there insupport.Nokia had been missing from our runs for quite some time but turned up to set his run. The in trail started on the slip road before the fishing pond. After a short run, we turned right and went straight up the mountain.
There were 3 checks which were easily broken by the hashers. On reaching the top, the trail took the hashiers to the left and all the way down to the brick factory and passing the fish pond back to the run site at the shop houses. The first runner was out at 6.55 p.m.
It was a straight forward and simple run and Kalam Kabut as usual was not satisfied (not up to his standard) and did a 2nd round with Cock Pain & wife who arrived late.
Circle was conducted by GM (Guiter Man). The circle started with a minutes silence to pay our respect to our close friend from Taiwan, Wildman, a true hasher who passed on on after an accident on 2/1/2011. A collection box was set up to collect some donations for the late wildman's family and a total of RM920 was collected from the small crowd.
On on in Chuan Kee Restaurent, Bandar Tech where we have not been there for quite some time. With 2 tables, some Black Label and good food the crowd stayed until quite late.

(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!

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!

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.)
Next Run: No 907 Date: 04/12/2010Hare: JPS Jit Venue: JPJ Jalan Kajang-Dengkil
(From Kajang, go along Jalan Reko. Past Sg Tangkas. Past University Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). Go straight, just after nuclear/atomic center which is at a sharp corner, turn right at the next junction. Go underpass the KL-Seremban Plus Highway and travel about a km and look for HLH4 signs on your right.)
