Hash: Chasing the sun

Health is the most important asset in life. However, to be always healthy is not so easy. This weeks my boyfriend has been caught an allergic and doctor recommend him to do sport everyday. We've been looking for some space in his daily schedule and find no place for sport time, hence we decide to do sport once a week.

This weekend we were joining our temple comunity to do Hash. What we do in hash is go into a forest and walk to the way out of forest. It's a very cheap sport and easy to do as well.

Here we do hash in a forest around chevron called "Kompos", it takes about 1 hour to reach there by pass to chevron's private road. We arrive at 3pm it means we just have 3 more hour before it getting dark, so we immediately park the car by the road and start getting into forest.

The path is freaking rough, I have a trouble in downhill because my right ankle have not fully recovered from my last accident. I feel so tired in the way because I really have to keep walking and have no way to stop or give up (if I give up then I could not get out of there) and worst we are chasing the sun before it goes down, if we are late we gotta face a big trouble for getting out in the middle of dark jungle without torch.

As we keep walking we find a few different scenery in the journey. It's just like we started from the jungle but we also cross a small village, reach the top of the hills, get through the palm tree forest and green field to the middle of the burnt straw. The scenery wipe the tiredness away eventually.

Here are some picture that I remembered to takes (with no filter):

Stick is much helping

After 2 hour walk, we finally finish the path and walk out of the forest before the sun going down. It's around 5pm at the time, everybody were very hungry and looking for food supplies. Luckily an auntie already prepared the afternoon meals for all the participant. Hence, we lay down on the grass and enjoy our food supplies. That time everything feels so relaxed and life feels so easy, keep away from the town and its traffic always bring refreshment to my soul. After we finish our meal the sky already dark and we went home.
