Our Man in Hong Kong

[Sweder]

Happily no name designated as yet. I have yet to commit a serious crime (other than the work call on the run thing), although if they ever read this lot 'Snitch' or similar (worse) may be on the cards.

I think we're all the Hashing type to be honest, based on the mix of people I met. Apparently there are vast differences from Hash to Hash in terms of ferocity of run and/ or apres hash partying. I suspect I have stumbled on exponents of the latter.

Hashing is great fun, but it could never be misconstrued as 'training'.
Acorn is a serious runner though - he does the 35 mile mega marathons in Asia, plus the 100 K Hong Kong run across the islands. His hash (the Free China Hash) only meet once per month, so I suspect he's out hitting the hard yards in between. The other hashes are pretty much social events, providing exPats with a common 'home' of sorts. All the sponsors of last weeekends' event were pubs, which sort of gives the game away.

No running in the past 48 hours as serious work abounds. Hoping to hit the local park tonight for 45 minutes or so, but there are a lot of pubs to get past on the way.
