ZH3 Hash # 1611: St. Nick’s Day (with guest appearance from the Krampus)

The hare is Saint Nicholas or the Krampus (to be finalised) The Krampus will be abducting small children and whipping them on trail. Saint Nicholas will reward you with Beer - if you leave him a shoe.

Meet at 6:45 pm to start at 7:00 pm. There will be a charge of CHF5.00 for participating.

Here's what you need to know about the Hash:
• The aim of the hash is to find the beer stop at the end and have fun.
• "True" trail is typically 6-7km.
• The pace within the group varies from dead-slow movers (we call them DFLs) to over-achieving fast runners (we call them FRBs)
• The "hare" cleverly lays the trail so that everyone reaches the end at the same time.
• If you are a slow runner, you will clock around 7kms.
• If you are a quick runner you will clock around 10kms.
• If you are a walker you will be dedicated to the cause, ignore trail and take the shortest route possible to get to the beer.
• There is always a place to deposit your bag and often a place to change.
• There is a charge of CHF5 for participating (and includes beer and snacks).
• If you like fun, drinking and doing something a bit different you will probably enjoy hashing. Humourless people need not apply.
