They dressed in red and gathered at a tennis court on Bowen Road last Sunday. Some had
reindeer headbands and some had toddlers on their backs.
The
100 or so "hashers" didn't know where they were going but they were all ready for the annual Santa Hash to raise
money for Operation Santa Claus, the charity appeal co-organised by the South China Morning Post and RTHK.
The run brings members from all of Hong Kong's 14 Hash House Harrier clubs together to
pursue a lead "hare" in a chase around the city.
"People
of all ages and abilities can join hashing. It is a healthy and socialising activity," hare Deric Probst-Wallace said.
