Vectis Lunatics Hash House Harriers
Monthly Full Moon Hash.
Unkindly called by some “The Drinking Club with a Running Problem”, the “Hash House Harriers” is essentially a running organisation with a strong social element and deep-rooted morals: – “Running with Attitude” and “You Have to Earn Your Drink”!
Trails, of about 4-6 miles, generally follow public rights of way and open land and are laid in flour, sawdust or similar. Along the Trail, route choices are marked by ‘checks’ and this not only provides interest for the faster runners, but also ensures that many are sent the wrong way enabling the slower to catch up.
Understand now? – Don’t blame you if you don’t! – Just Try It!
- Time: 6:45pm for 7pm start
- Cost: FREE
- Location: The Chequers Inn, Rookley
