How to get there : 
Tram T1, stop "Halle Tony Garnier" 


Hare : Hidden Asset

Hashcash : 5€

Bagdrop : probably not
 
 
On after : At about 13:00, we will go the the wine fair (Salon des Vignerons indépendants), where you get a wine glass, and then can wander around (no trail marked!) and taste wine, but also bubbly, liqueurs, etc... 
There are also food stands where you can buy food.

Run #14 - Froglegs and Knights in Vernaison - 30/08/2025

HHHey Halfminds,

Here a mix of our two last trails, one where much water (from the sky!) and swimming in a lake was involved and the other one about fairy tales... , so that some of us might have turned into frogs already! 

Well, next trail won't be far from the water either, and the hare promissed us forest and knights of the round table... or at least a table, and frogs... will those poor frogs end up on the knights roundtable? or just on the hashers' plates?


Here the details:

When : Saturday 30th August at 2pm 

Where : In front of Vernaison train station 
 
How to get there : 
From Lyon Perrache station, take the 13:31 train in the direction of Firminy.
It's only a 15min train ride to Vernaison, BUT, there is a train every hour only. Don't miss it! 


Hare : Hidden Asset

Hashcash : 5€

Bagdrop : probably?
 
 
On after (or On before?) : The local resto (L'île) is supposed to be renowned for its Froglegs... let's see what we can disorganise.

 



Run #13 - A brief but short Fairy Tale run

HHHey Halfminds,

It's August, the town is empty, all the lyonnais are away on vacation... all?? no, a few irreductible hashers are still bravely battling with the heat, quenching their thirst with every single beer they might lay their hands on!

And that's a good coïncidence, since we have visitors next week, Sleeping Booty from Paris and Bl*w Job from Australia. Yes, sounds like the start of a very hashy fairy tale. Wanna know the end of the story?

Come and join us for a short(ish) trail - said the hare, and some drinking practice afterwards! 

 

Here the details:

When : Thursday 14th August at 6:30pm 

Where : Place Bellecour, north-east corner. In front of the Crédit Mutuel bank, 15 place Bellecour 
 
How to get there : Metro stop Bellecour

Hare : Lazy Swinger (+ You Chew Mine? )

Hashcash : 5€

Bagdrop : no
 
This will be a A to B run. Runners and walkers welcome 
 
 
On after : there will be some drinking at the local bars afterwards. Check the WhatsApp to know where exactly

 

 


 

Run #12 - A French man went to...the Lac de Miribel - 14/07/2025

 HHHey Halfminds,

What a better way to celebrate July 14th than to ... go to the lavatory!

Following the recent heatwave, we all agree that a cool and wet one would be best for next Lyon H3 run. 

The hare told me, he has no clue yet, where he would take us, but he promissed a swimstop and some insider information on the asian food vendors hiding in the bushes around the lake...  (I wonder if there is a hidden message here...)

Here the details:

When : Monday 14th July at 10am 

Where : In front of the public toilets , plage du Morlet, All. du Morlet, 69120 Vaulx-en-Velin  
Between Brasserie du Grand Parc and Parking de la Capitainerie 

How to get there : 
Take bus N83 from Métro Laurent Bonnevay or bus N80 from Métro Vaulx en Velin la Soie. Stop at "Grand parc le Morlet" and walk 1 minute to the start. Bus every 20 min
Or bike it, along the Rhône
Cars : plenty car parks around


Hare : You Chew Mine

Hashcash : 5€

Bagdrop : probably
 
Swimstop : yes! get ready to be wet 
 
On after : we will do a picnic after the run, either by buying asian food from the street vendors (if they are around on that day) or from the local guinguette / frite house. This is pay as you go. You can also bring your own food.
And we will hang out by the lake afterwards...
 
 
 
 
 
Run report:
It was a hot morning, half of the pack still being hungover from the dancing (and maybe the drinking) at the Bal des Pompiers the night before...
 

After a confusing car ballet (2 hares, 3 cars!!!), the hares started an energetic and very thorough chalktalk... then mentionning that the huge rain downpour the night before had probably washed away all the marking...
 

However, runners and walkers didn't let that get in their way to the beerstop. 
 
And along the lake we went.
Over bridges and ridges... and naturist beaches...
 

 
Finally reaching the On Inn and the promised wet spot... I mean, the SwimStop!
 
 

Lunch was had somewhere in Asia... (yes, we ran that far).
 

 
And the drinking / sleeping /swimming went lazzily on all afternoon, so lazzy, that we didn't even have a circle...

 

Run #11 - Let's celebrate 69 !

HHHi Halfminds,

Recently a new hasher was born! So let's celebrate his 69th day in this world with a run starting from where it all begun (yeah... the hospital...)
Our hare, now an irresponsable parent, promissed a short 6.9 km urban trail for the runners and probably a few shortcuts for the w#nkers.
The whole followed by an apéro (=circle, but French style) down by the river.


Here the (very) confusing details if you want to join:

When : Thursday 12th June at 6.9pm 
(Yes it's during the week, yes, it's in the evening, and yes, it is just before 7pm . 18h54 to be precise)

Where : At the Gym .... 
Meet at the outdoor gym installation, down by the river on Quai Claude Bernard, just accross Hôpital Saint Joseph Saint Luc and Tram 1 stop "Quai Claude Bernard"

How to get there : Take tram T1 to "Quai Claude Bernard", and just go down on the quai by the river.

Hare : Lazy Swinger + Lazy Cola

Hashcash : 5€

Bagdrop : Not really, but if you insist (and walk 10 min), we'll find a solution.


 
****************************************
   
Run report:
For being so tiny, the hare, Lazy Cola, set a pretty long trail, with 2 drink stops and a long apéro circle afterwards.  

 
The poor quality of the markings was of course attributed to the co-hare, Lazy Swinger, who had more interest on showing us all the strip clubs around Vieux Lyon, than keeping the pack together.
Just Nadège and Hidden Asset, running straight to the On Inn trail... following it backwards for a long...long...long...time, before being called (litterally on the phone!!!) back from the Hare. 
 

 
 
The first beerstop had been chosen in honor of the newly born, Abel, but turned out not to be a bar ... So Hidden Asset rushed to the nearby supermarket, and found the beerstop, safely stored in the fridges of the shop... How clever! 
 

 
 
After quite a view false trails (unsurprisingly all done by You Chew Mine...), and a good amount of technology, Runners and Walkers gathered at Hotel Dieu for the second Beerstop (surprinsingly cold).
 
 

The rest of the run and the circle was kind of blurry... and stretched late into the night. Welcome to Just Nadège (a virgin!) and Just Erhart (a visitor... from Hannover!)




Run #10 - Technology in St Priest

HHHi Halfminds,

We all know technology is not made for trail, so don't let the hare fool you with the name of the starting point... shiggy there shall be! 


When : Sunday 18th May at 14:00 

Where : Tram stop "Parc Technologique" in St Priest - Tram line T2 

How to get there : Take tram T2 in the direction of St Priest Bel Air

Hare : Hidden Asset
Hashcash : 5€
Bagdrop : Not really, but if you insist, we'll stash your stuff in the nearby bushes...


Run report:
 
After a lot of last minute changes on the RSVP, who's cumming list, and who will drive, we ended up having almost more cars than hashers at the run...
ok, not illogic, as this was a technology run.

 
 
Lots of lakes, high grass, wild spring flowers on trail, while the runners were sent on a flew extra loops, with a bit more concrete to it.

 
 
Walkers patiently waited for the lost runners at beerstop one, and at beerstop 2 as well... 

 
 
A buccolic circle was had, with some new shoes, a naming, and quite a lot of bad singing...
