German Hash-a-thon 2026

Another great weekend in the hinterlands of Germany. We had about 30 hashers turn up for this one, hash-a-thon, out in Horwagen (about 3 hours north of Munich). As you might have guessed, this year’s event was hosted by the Munich H3, and they did a wonderful job hosting us. Great food, plenty to drink, and awesome trails. If you are not familiar with a hash-a-thon, it is four hash trails that eventually equal 42 kms of bliss, all in one day. Each trail is hared by a different hash club, and they use their own club’s marks (so just enough to keep you on your toes while running). Participants can run all four trails, or any of them or just one, totally up to the individual. This year the first trail was 16 kms, second trail was 11 kms, number 3 was mine at 8 kms, and the last one was supposed to be 7, but ended up closer to 9. This year’s winner for most distance covered was Made-2-Cum from Frankfurt, and he covered 49.2 kms. My lazy ass only did 22.

The pictures provided are some hanging out photos, but all the trail shots are of trail three . . . the one I hared (and tagged along with the pack when they ran it). Although it rained pretty hard on Friday night, we had great weather otherwise. It’s a wonderful life.Read more
