The Shanghai Hash House Harriers began in 1986. We’re a mixed hash (meaning all genders and sexes are welcome) that runs walks or hobbles every Sunday come rainstorm, snowstorm, beerstorm, sandstorm, etc. Attendance varies from 4-60 people, but typically is around 20-30. Really though, who cares?
Shanghai Hash House Harriers. A Drinking Club with a Running Problem. We meet every Sunday 2:45pm start at 3.00pm.
You need to have a working arm and elbow, enough so that you can drink a beer. There are many different types of hashers. There are those “Type A” hashers who delight in running 5-12 km trails on Sunday afternoon after having run their half marathon training earlier in the morning. Then there are those hashers who just like to have an afternoon walk and a beer and food.
You need to bring a sense of humor, a willingness to get dirty, and a change of clothes. There will be water and beer provided for you, as well as some food at the end
Yes. Currently (2024) there are 5 other Hash House Harriers in Shanghai.

There are over 2,000 Hash House Harrier groups worldwide. These groups are often referred to as “kennels” and can be found in various cities and countries. The Hash House Harriers website (https://www.gthhh.com/) provides a directory of these groups and their contact information.
In 1938, a group of nine British officers in Kuala Lumpur started going for weekly runs to shake off their weekend hangovers. They didn’t have any grand ambitions, but the small group — known as the Hash House Harriers — evolved into one of the world’s biggest running collectives.
Hashing is an exhilaratingly fun combination of running, orienteering, and partying, where bands of Harriers and Harriettes chase Hares on eight-to-fifteen kilometer-long trails through town, country, jungle, and desert, all in search of exercise, camaraderie, and good times
