The Lima Hash House Harriers
There are Hash House Harrier groups all over the world, and Peru is no exception. The Lima Hashers refer to themselves as "Drinkers with a running problem". They meet in different locations in and outside of Lima every few weeks for an organized event. You don’t have to be an athlete to get involved. The Hash always has two routes: one for runners, the other for walkers. Afterwards, there is always food, drinks and music. Hashes in Lima attract from 20 to 60 people, both foreigners and locals. Participating with the Hash is a good way to make local friends and to get to know the geography of Lima.
To receive the details of their runs - and be privy to the banter between the members - send an empty mail with nothing in the subject line to: LimaHHH-subscribe@yahoogroups.com. Be forewarned that this can generate quite a bit of traffic to your mailbox. If you want the basic information, but without the banter, join the EXPATRIATE LIST (above).
