Do you like beer ! Do you like running/ walking! Do you like drinking beer and running! then hashing is for you. Does Hash Running Mean I Have to Actually Run? Not a runner? Not a problem! A typically Hash House Harrier kennel consists of hashers of all ages and fitness levels, with both runners and those who prefer to walk every single step, In fact, part of the purpose of the aforementioned “false checks” and other check points is to help keep the pack together, allowing time for the walkers to catch up with the runners. Sometimes hashers even show up in outfits not conducive to running. The first ever Cardboard Robot Hash. Further, I have attended trails where the kennel exclusively walks. Of course, you’re always welcome to run…but you’ll be waiting around at the song check for quite some time if you’re the only runner out there. Point being: the hash is not the place to be worried about your pace. Everyone is welcome. But I Don’t Drink Alcohol, Can I Still Be A Hasher? Absolutely. As I write this post, I myself am 365 days sober. My hashing friends have been some of my biggest supporters on this journey. I have run with Hash House Harriers kennels up and down fun , and never once have I felt pressured to consume alcohol. Hashers are friendly, patient, and some of the most wildly understanding people I have met on earth (also some of the wildest people I have met on earth, but I digress). If you do not want to drink alcohol, you do not have to drink alcohol. But, the disclaimer here is that hashing and drinking are intertwined. So while you don’t have to drink, definitely be open and understanding to the idea that others will be consuming alcohol. The Hash House Harriers (HHH or H3) is an international group of non-competitive running social clubs. An event organized by a club is known as a Hash or Run, or a Hash Run. A common denominal verb for this activity is Hashing, with participants calling themselves Hashers. Members are referred to as Harriers or Harriettes based on gender or preference.
