Once a week we are out with friends on a run (or walk) following signs marked with chalk or flour. Before the run we have a chalk talk where the hare explains what signs she or he has used, an X usually means a wrong path, an arrow gives the direction, and so on.

Sometimes this weekly paper chase turns into a scavenger hunt. AQ stands for adventure quest and it means that somewhere near there is a stash of drinks (often schnapps or beer but always bottles of water for non-drinkers). The task of the hounds is to locate the hiding place of the goodies.

Besides the fun of looking for hidden goodies, this helps to keep all the runners together: while the frontrunners are looking for the AQ, the slower runners have a chance to catch up.
