You can always make a method of the Session_Start and call it

namespace WebFormsApplication1
{
    public class Global : HttpApplication
    {
        void Session_Start(object sender, EventArgs e) 
        {
            Global.StartSession();
        }
    }

    public static class Global 
    {
        public static void StartSession() {

            Session["Test"] = 1;
        }
    }
}

and in your Handler, simply call Global.StartSession();
