Zürich Fun Outstation: Zürich Beerathlon

Registered Teams:

Hash House Hobblers (Carrie + Roswitha for Küpli run)

Thirsty Penn Hashers (Thirsty Thursday + Just Steve)

http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/1/9/a/c/event_166626572.jpegThis is an annual event in Zürich and it seems to what Hashers do best: drinking beer and running.

Running with a whole lot of like-minded people could be a great opportunity for the Zürich Hashers to tell those people that they can actually do this once a week and not only once a year.

To find out more, bribe a German speaking friend with a beer for his translation services and follow this link.: http://www.bierathlon.ch/cms/was-ist-ein-bierathlon.html

In a nutshell, this is what the beerathlon is all about:

Two teams of two men run 6.75 km and have to finish 3 litres of beer between the start and the finish. It is up to them when they want to drink it.

Alternatively, teams of two girls run 2.7 km and have to finish a bottle of bubblies.

Spillage of alcohol in any way is not allowed and will be fined with Jägermeister shots.

How to participate:

find a teammate and using a name which includes "Hash House" register your team directly under:

http://www.bierathlon.ch/cms/anmelden-bierathlon-2012.html (http://www.bierathlon.ch)

Please inform the event host so we can publish your team name and show how many people are registered.

Anyone else who doesn't want to run is welcome to drink and cheer.

If you want, you can also wear a funny costume (red dress?) for the run.

Hurry up and register because places are limited.
