Hash House Harriers Pania Plodders

Hash House Harriers Pania Plodders Hello, Pania Plodders HHH is a drinking and running/walking group that gets together once a week inHB Usually on a Monday, or on occasion – Sunday. Interested?

Pania Plodders HHH is a non-competitive, social, drinking and running/walking group that gets together once a week. Hash House Harrier groups exist in most countries around the world and are often described as “drinking clubs with a running problem!”

Napier HHH, otherwise known as Pania Plodders was founded on March 9th, 1981. Each “Hash” or otherwise known as a run/walk consists of two parts. T

he actual run/walk and then the circle. The run is usually on a trail set by a “Hare” and varies between 3-5km. These are predominantly set in Napier, but every 2-3 weeks, we set a Hastings trail. These “runs” can of course be walked and are suitable for oldies and youngies alike! Somewhere during the night – whether it’s in the middle of the walk/run, or afterwards, there are delicious, cold, refreshing alcoholic beverages! There are also non-alcoholic drinks available too. The cost of each run is about $5 (hash kash), with an additional (but small) cost per beverage consumed. The funds then go back into supplying the drinks, and running costs for the club. Hope to see you at our next event! OnOn!

👋 Hello to all our new followers, and welcome to the Pania Plodders Hash House Harriers page! 💚🩷

If you've recently found us and are wondering what we're all about, here's a quick introduction...

We're a friendly social run/walk club where it's not about being the fastest—it's about getting outdoors, having a laugh, meeting great people, and enjoying a bit of adventure along the way.

Whether you're a seasoned runner, a casual walker, or someone who just wants to get out of the house and try something new, you'll fit right in. We welcome all ages and fitness levels, and your first trail is FREE! 🍻

We meet every Sunday afternoon or Monday evening at different locations around Hawke's Bay, with a new trail each week. Expect scenic walks, the occasional challenge, plenty of laughs, and a great bunch of people who love a bit of fun.

So if you've been thinking about coming along, this is your sign! Pop us a message if you have any questions, or simply keep an eye on our weekly trail posts and join us when you're ready.

We can't wait to meet you!
On On! 👣💚🩷

🐻‍❄️❄️ Pania Plodders Take the Polar Plunge! ❄️🐻‍❄️

As if trail wasn't enough excitement for the pack a couple weeks ago, the brave (or perhaps slightly unhinged) Hashers finished the afternoon with a Polar Bear Dip in Shady lady’s cold pool 🏊

Ignoring the cold temperatures and any remaining common sense 😉 - Shady Lady, 69, Flight Risk, Likka, and our special guest, NZGM Gatecrasher, charged into the water with plenty of laughs and questionable decision-making.

Of course, no Hash story is complete without a wardrobe malfunction. NZGM Gatecrasher managed to "lose" his bottoms in the water.

A huge well done to everyone who took the plunge. It was cold, it was chaotic, and it was the perfect way to finish another fantastic Pania Plodders trail.

📸 Photos from our "Golden Oldies Trail" 👴👵🍻

The geriatrics were out in force for this one, with plenty of laughs, questionable knees, and just enough puff left to make it to the finish! 😉

Likka and Pockets had the hounds sniffing their way around Napier CBD in search of trail, only to discover that the most efficient route was by bus! After being issued our "Gold Cards", the pack hopped aboard and was whisked off to Roseanne Retirement Home.

A huge thanks to the wonderful staff for welcoming the hashers. It's a beautiful facility, and if you're looking for retirement living, it's well worth a look.

Big thanks to Hares Likka and Pockets for putting on a cracking Golden Oldies Trail. Another memorable afternoon full of laughs, good company, and plenty of On On spirit.
On On! 👣🍺
