Runners with a drinking problem...
The Hash House Harriers are an international group of people who share and "follow" the same interest, so to speak, when passing their spare time. Their main necessity for this activity is of a liquidy kind and the actually exhausting part of it all lies in
detecting and retrieving just that - yet they don't necessarily do watersports .
They follow a layed out trail and run for miles to reach the sought after and refereshing fluid: beer! And all this activity has a name:"Hash" and the
people, who follow this extremely sporty cult call themselves "Hash
House Harriers" - and they do that worldwide.

Additionally the extreme strain of mere running without any sort of final gratification would have seemed to much of hard work. So they decided to combined the virtues of both to a single one and the Hash was born.
