I am a proud member of the Vindobona Hash House Harriers (VH3) and Vienna Full Moon Hash House Harriers since September 24, 2000. This sports/social club meets once a week and also on the night of the full moon, where we jog and have fun. On the occasion of our 922nd run in Vienna (October 22, 2000) I was awarded a Hash Name. Since the foundation of the Vienna Moto Hash House Harriers (July 2002) I am a go-kart racer too.
Feel free to join us if you are interested in casual sport, fun, and parties. After moving to the west of Austria I missed this sports activity and I founded a new kennel. On July 6, 2006 we had the first hash run with the L.amA.H3 - aka Lech am Arlberg Hash House Harriers.
As I was travelling abroad I had fewer possibilities to take part in hash runs however, I managed to run with the Sydney Thirsty H3 and meet up with other hashers of which some I knew even from events in Europe.
In the recent years I have become stationary and I am back home in Austria... still thinking of running again with the Vienna chapter. But my home is on the country side now and I haven't managed to get to town often.
