A drinking club with a running problem ! That's what a Hash House run is all about. Fun !
The template for a hash run is loosely based on hare hunting. One or more hashers (the "hares") lay out a running trail, that the rest of the club (pack or 'hounds') follows. The trail may include false trails (check-backs or CB), short cuts (or splits), breaks, and checks (a marking on the trail that requires the pack to search the area to discover the correct direction of the trail.
These features are designed to keep the pack together regardless of fitness levels or running speed.
Hashers frequently describe themselves as 'a drinking club with a running problem', and the social element of hashing is of equal importance to the running. The seriousness of the running and of the drinking varies.

I'm visiting Whistler on June 22-29 and I'd love to meet up with the hash - where? when? Also any other trail running groups.
Thank you!
