We’re Sydney Thirsty Hash House Harriers, part of the worldwide Hash House Harriers – a Drinking Club with a Running Problem!

What We’re About

Sydney Thirsty Hash House Harriers (STH3) is where trail running meets social chaos.

We don't care about your PB or your fancy gear. Some of us are front-running fanatics, some are casual joggers, and plenty of us are dedicated walkers who prefer a scenic stroll that ends at a cold drink. 

Whether you're hitting the "shiggy" (the mud) or just taking the direct line to the pub, you're doing it right.

We care about that moment the trail ends and the social side begins. We provide the trail, the friendly faces, and the refreshments.

📆 Meeting Details

• When: Every Thursday at 6:30 PM (rain, hail, or shine!) and the first Saturday of each month. See upcoming runs or join our Facebook group for the next start location.

• Where: A different spot each week, usually in or around the city, Inner West, or Lower North Shore.

• Cost: Your first run is free (drinks and snacks included)! After that, it’s $10 per run (discounts available if you prepay).

🎒 Bags & Gear

There’s always someone to mind your gear, so you can bring a bag and leave it during the run.

7. Why are you called the Sydney Thirsty “Hash House Harriers”?

The Hash House Harriers (HHH) is a global phenomenon, started in 1938 in Kuala Lumpur by British expats. It’s now a worldwide network of over 2,000 chapters, blending running, socializing, and a bit of mischief. “Hash” comes from the nickname of the original meeting spot (the “Hash House”), and “Thirsty” reflects our Thursday runs and love for a post-run drink!
