About the club

If you are keen on cross-country running, then why not turn up for a run (or walk) with the Kennet Valley Hash? We are a friendly bunch of about 15 runners and maybe 15 walkers, we meet alternate Sunday's. Follow a trail of about 5-6 miles for runners and, half the distance for walkers. Each time we meet at a different pub in a radius of about 15 miles from Marlborough - so we see a lot of beautiful countryside, and it never rains,well not during the past 9 years, anyway. Hashing is not a race; more of a hare-&-hounds event, following a trail laid by a different volunteer each time. And with plenty of false trails and blind alley to check out, the leader can soon become tail-end Charlie at any time. We set off at 11:00 sharp(ish) and are usually back at around 12:30 - for a couple of pints and Sunday lunch. It's a lot of fun, not competitive, good exercise, good beer,so why not try it and see? Advanced age and/or lack of ability are no bar to participation! On on.
