Original Nairobi Hash House Harriers (ONH3)
The phenomenal growth of the Nairobi Hash House Harriers a few years back, with some runs at times getting over 150 runners turning up, led to the formation of the Original Nairobi Hash House Harriers (ONH3), a much smaller group. This group shares the same heritage as all the other Hash groups, with the same goals, rituals and traditions. It even collaborates with the bigger NH3 group in organizing some of the annual weekend runs such as the Naivasha Relay during the year, .
The ONH3 normally holds their runs on Mondays at 5:45pm from the hare’s hole…. that’s the residence of the volunteer (hare) setting the run for that week. Run distances are typically 5-6km, with the obligatory false trails and a halt included on the trail.
No membership fee is required to join this Hash group. However, each runner is required to pay a registration fee of Ksh 400/= on every run to meet the costs of the ritual down down ceremony and Supper after the run.
For further information on their running venues, calendar of events, or to subscribe to their mailing list, send a blank email to onh3-subscribe@yahoogroups.com or contact their Scribe edwinwachira@gmail.com. You can also visit their website http://www.originalnairobihash.com/ONH3/Home.html.
