Whether you are a seasoned swimmer or just dipping your toes into open water swimming, this event is perfect for fitness enthusiasts, triathletes, and water sports lovers alike. Make new friends, network, and enjoy the beauty of the outdoors while engaging in a social and energizing activity.

Ashtanga Yoga
Power Yoga
Mobility Training
Functional strength exercises with physiotherapy-based principles
Designed to help you:
Improve mobility
Release tension
Build strength and focus
Develop mental and physical resilience

Rain sessions come with a motivational surprise for the tough ones.
📍 4 minutes from Küsnacht train station

💰 CHF 35
Created by a therapeutic yoga teacher and inspired by real military experience during a KFOR deployment, WARGA was designed specifically for strong bodies that need mobility, recovery, and mental balance without losing intensity.
Train hard. Recover better. Then jump into Lake Zurich afterward.

Teams and allocated legs are available [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Q6skotPebRNoYWr4WR0YRG2A2BcU10DkdV4krR8NE0w/edit?usp=sharing).
This year we have only two SOLA hash teams.

A final party/grill will be organized at the finish line at Irchel park.
If you would like to place yourself on the standby list please contact *Premature Cocksucker* (and maybe other hashers).
All Zürich Hashers are welcome to cheer on our Hash teams along the route and also to circle starting at 18:00 at Irchel University (follow the pin location).
Hash cash will not be collected from regular Zürich Hashers on the day. Regular SOLA rego is CHF 40.
As last year SOLA allows all genders to run any of the stretches. The race starts with a leg 1 at 7:30 (all registered teams are slow teams) in the misty Hönggerberg woods. Then runners 2 to 7 head out into Engstringen, up and along the Uetliberg and back into town, finishing at the beautiful University Irchel. The afternoon runners 8-12 start at 12:30 . The trail heads through Forch to Egg and comes back to Witikon. Two short runs from there to the finish at Irchel complete the race. We meet at tents across the lake from the finish.
Handover is done by a handshake to the next runners so **it's important to turn up early**.
Runners 1, 8 and 13 start sharp at 7:30, 12:30 and 16:45 respectively.
For more information visit [SOLA homepage](https://asvz.ch/event/412-sola-stafette)
ZH3 Hash # 1726: Dude, where's my lube?
The recipe to success for an EPIC race day, is vigorous application of lube on your entire body. Come join for the pre-LUBE hash prior to the SOLA relay race. The aim is to find the most epic bottle of wholesale lube, and lather ourselves up prior to the big race day. Oh, and also to run, drink beer, and exchange racing strategies at a lovely on-after.
Expect a short trail to save those running legs around the Schlieren area, exact bag drop/On after will be decided still, but likely very close to the Schlieren train station.
**Where**:
See location. Typically within Zurich Zone 10. Look for English speakers wearing running gear.
**When:**
We'll meet at 6:50 pm to start at 7:00 pm.
There's a charge of CHF 5 for participating, which covers all you can drink beer/cider (and non-alcoholic alternatives) plus snacks afterwards.
**All Welcome:**
If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know:
• We are a social running/walking group, physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humour is useful.
• The aim is to find the '*Beer Stop*' at the end of the '*trail*' and have fun.
• 'True Trail' is typically 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running), and some over-achieving fast runners will go further.
• The '*Hare*', which changes each event (along with location), cleverly lays the trail (typically with flour marks) so that everyone reaches the end at the same time.
• There is always a place to deposit your bag and sometimes a place to change.
• **After Trail**, we group for \~20-40 minutes for drinks, snacks, and some fun. This '*Circle*' is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark). If you don't want to stand around drinking afterwards, you can head home. We occasionally all go to a restaurant afterwards.
**Why bother leaving your warm & dry sofa?**
If you enjoy getting outside, being around people, and doing something a bit different, you will probably enjoy hashing. Exercise is important, and this is probably the least boring way to get it.
'Hashing' and the idea of some physical activity to work up a thirst, have been around for almost 90 years and there are groups (*Hashes*) in most major cities. Its humor and 'traditions' can be explored on the internet - **or you can just come along and find out.** *See you there.*
We are of many nationalities, all ages, full of misfits and idiots (at least there is no one taking themselves seriously!) and always welcome newbies 'Virgin Hashers' and visitors from other groups.
