The Athletics Wellington Race Walking Championship will be held on Sunday, September 28, 2025 at 12:00pm on a 1km measured course at Trentham Memorial Park, Upper Hutt. They need some helpers on the day - please let Phillip Du Toit know if you can help. This is a great opportunity for those of you that have not done much/any judging and are keen to gain experience! It will be a lowkey event so no pressure to have prior experience, we're grateful for any help you can offer. The role of a certified first aider is very important so please let them know if you're able to assist us there.
Clubroom cleanup on Sunday morning, 9am kick off. Many hands make light work as they say. Bring a bucket, scrubbing brush and cloths if you can, maybe a broom. We are usully done by late morning.

New Zealand Road Relay Championships
Fielding
It would be fantastic if we can get a large group of club members up to Fielding on a road trip for the New Zealand Road Relay Championships. "Road Relays is New Zealand's ultimate team running experience. This stage-based relay race will see you and your crew running through the country roads, handing off relay batons, cheering out of van windows, and celebrating together at the end of the journey."
You must be 14 years and over as the relay is run on open roads. The event is close to home, so we hope to get a number of teams there! If you are interested, please speak to Darryl.
The club covers team entry fees.
If you wish to loin a team, please register here:
