What is SSH3?
The South Sound Hash House Harriers (SSH3) is a vibrant social running club based in Olympia, dedicated to blending fun, fitness, and friendship. Often humorously dubbed a drinking club with a running problem, SSH3 organizes non-competitive runs known as hashes. Participants, affectionately referred to as hashers, navigate trails set by a hare, encountering false paths and unique challenges along the way. This engaging mix of running and socializing fosters a strong sense of camaraderie among members, making every event an adventure filled with laughter and connection.
