📅 Date: Thursday, 17th April 2025
⏰ Time: 19:00

This special Hash House Harriers (ZH3) event pays tribute to Zimbabwe's Independence Day with a themed trail, great company, and post-run refreshments. Whether you're a seasoned Hasher or joining for the first time, expect a welcoming, laughter-filled gathering where fitness is optional, but fun is guaranteed!

If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know:

• Physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humor is useful.
• The aim is to find the 'Beer Stop' at the end of the 'trail' and have fun.
• 'True Trail' is typically 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running) and some over-achieving fast runners will go further.
• The 'Hare', which changes each event, cleverly lays the trail (typically with flour marks) so that everyone reaches the end at the same time.
• There is always a place to deposit your bag and sometimes a place to change.
• After the trail, we group for ~30-45 minutes for drinks, snacks, and some fun. This 'Circle' is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark).

How It Works

• The Hare, Cherry Popper (with helpers), sets a trail using clever markers (like flour) to guide participants.
• Follow the trail at your own pace—whether running, walking, or a mix of both.
• Everyone reaches the Beer Stop at the same time for well-earned drinks and socializing.

Why Join?

• A fresh way to celebrate Zimbabwean culture & independence.
• An engaging, non-serious approach to fitness & community.
• A welcoming international crowd with a great sense of humor.

ZH3 has been keeping the tradition of Hashing alive for nearly 90 years, offering a fun escape from the everyday. If you enjoy adventure, laughter, and making new friends, this event is for you!
