Description: Christopher Columbus, the original Hasher, stumbled on Jamaica in 1494 while on his way to India. "FALSE TRAIL !" yelled the Arawaks, who reminded him that he should have waited until AFTER the run before getting pissed. Some 504 years later Goran Engdahl (Nutcase) and Bill Hetherington (Bags) co-founded the Jamaica Hash House Harriers - our lucky day: Friday the 13th of February 1998.
JAH3, based in Kingston, is a family Hash representing a wide spectrum of nationalities, ranging from four years old to those with more Hash runs behind them than in front of them. Some of our Hashers are lean and wirey marathon runners, others well rounded marathon drinkers. Usually, the runs take place every other Sunday - in the afternoon, but this varies depending on the mood and preference of the hare(s) on duty.
