Hash House Harriers (HHH)
HHH is often described as a drinking club with a running problem. If you like some competition and/or racing, then HHH is not for you - join an athletics club (preferably ours :-D) instead. On the other hand, if you just want to run informally in a group and have BBQs and brewed alcoholic beverages afterwards, then HHH could well be your thing.Posh (Hobart) Hash House Harriers
