Describe your group.

The hash house harriers were started in Malaysia by expat's in the 1940's. Today it has grown to over 1800 chapters all over the world. Even though we have a few marathon runners we welcome all levels of fitness, especially those with a sense of humour. A typical Hash run is about 6-8km and lasts anywhere from 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Beer stops are a welcome site during a Hash run and in the circle after the run. You can expect singing of rugby songs, silly names and a bit of hoot 'n holllering. We run in and around The Hague, exploring parks, forests and city streets.
