The Birmingham Hash House Harriers

Posted By GaZ On February 17, 2008 @ 6:35 pm In Entertainment | Comments Disabled

Finally Birmingham has it’s own Hash House Harrier [1] (HHH or H3) kennel! I was looking for a local “chapter” when I first moved to Birmingham, but there didn’t seem to be an active one… until a few months ago!

The Hash [2] is a free-for-all club of “drinkers with a running problem,” who meet once a month to follow a predetermined route (set by the “hare” the day before). The pace is as fast or slow as you want it to be, and the trail usually ends up at a pub where the group can gather for refreshments.

The Birmingham kennel has been set up by Mark Williams and Neil Cooper, who can be contacted via the BH3 Homepage [3], which will also have the details of upcoming runs. The next is to be held on Saturday, April 19th, starting at 12 noon at Sutton Coldfield railway station. Hope to see you there!
