About LRH3
LRH3 Logo

The Little Rock Hash House Harriers is part of the loosely organized group of clubs known collectively as the "Hash". Since its founding in 1938 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia the Hash has spread to most of the larger cities of the world, following the simple philosophy: "Running should be fun."

Based on the English game of "Hound and the Hare", the Hash involves a group of runners (the "Hounds") who try to follow a trail marked in flour or toilet paper by the leader (the "Hare"). The ultimate goal is to find the finish (the "On-In") where vast quantities of beer and other refreshments are consumed. The Little Rock Hash House Harriers, founded in 1974, is one of the oldest Hash chapters in the United States.
