Saturday 23 May 2026
Vosseler Shield
Sinclair Park


The Vosseler Shield - the last race of the Autumn classics and the first individual race on the inter-club calendar for those registered as a competitive athlete.

This year the venue has changed. Mt Victoria was great terrain to race but the cost of traffic management was getting brutal and other factors combined to lead the organisers to have a re-think. They came up with a plan and are having a crack. The new course is based around Sinclair Park.

Please throw your support into this, and go in with an open mind. The course continues the spirit of Mt Vic and looks to honour the Vosseler Shield.

Check out our inter-club page for updated info on this long standing classic race.

The clubrooms typically wouldn't be open today, however if there is a group not heading to Sinclair Park but wanting to meet at TMP, you will need to organise yourselves. The clubrooms won't be open sorry.

Saturday 13 June 2026
Dorne Cup
Trentham Memorial Park


The start of winter, so likely cold, wet and muddy - glorious cross country weather! The first interclub race in winter is The Dorne Cup - a cross country on our home ground. It is the second non-relay race on the inter-club calendar for those registered as a competitive athlete. This can be a very fast race if the conditions aren't too muddy, and if it is muddy requires a combination of speed and power. Well worth watching as it is quite a spectator friendly course. Check out our inter-club page for info on this long standing classic race.



Saturday 20-21 June 2026

University Cross Country Relays
Chocolate Walk
Mackays Crossing


Fantastic participation again, what an awesome turn out from TUH. I heard some comments from other clubs about how many blue and gold singlets out they saw.

Our club captain Stephen builds our teams based off his predictions of everyones time. It is a labourious job, but one that he is very talented at.

Club Day & Mad Dash Relay
Clubrooms, Trentham Memorial Park


What a great turn out for our Mad Dash Relay! Mixed up teams with loads of confusion about who was running next, and a few glorious tumbles in the stream made for a super fun little hit out. Everyone looked to have the gates and flags down correctly so we're ready to rock for next week's Battle Hill relay. Please everyone sign up, including parents who are still on the fence about this running gig. It will be a great experience.



Saturday 25 - Sunday 26 April 2026
Faultline Ultra
Clubrooms, Trentham Memorial Park


For this years edition of the Faultline Ultra, we had three individuals, with newer member George Strickland placing 11th in 25km run in 2:18:02. What a fantastic run! In the 6km event James and Lachie Garland blasted around in sub-5 minute km's for 28:58.

In the miler, we had two teams competing - a clash of the young vs old. Max, Tom, Findlay and Isla took on the mighty veterans Jeremy Boyd, Phil B, Mark B and Stephen.

A very cold morning greeted the two teams at 5am in Queen Elizabeth Park. Max got the young guns off to a flyer, being the very first runner to arrive at the changeover at Hub 1. Jeremy B not too far behind with a great run too. In leg two Tom v Phil ended up being a bit of a mismatch with Tom putting big time into Phil. Mark B took off on a mission for leg three chasing down Findlay making up all the lost time setting up a stunning leg four finale of Isla vs Stephen, only 1 minute separating them. Stephen brought all his experience to bear but Isla held her nerve and ran a fantastic final leg to cross the line first, 10 minutes in front of Stephen. The two Trentham teams finished first and second in the Miler Teams event! Congratulations.

Here are their times:
Leg 1 (33km) traversed over the hills to finish at Tulsa Park: Max - 2:57:07; Jerry - 3:14:33.
Leg 2 (48km) went over Boulder Hill to Porirua finishing at Bishop Viard College: Tom - 5:04:02; Phil 5:45:14.
Leg 3 (48km) up Colonial Knob to the Skyline finishing at Makara Peak Car Park: Findlay - 5:53:52; Mark 4:56:05.
This put the teams 1 minute apart at the start of the final leg.
Leg 4 (32km) over Wrights Hill, Mt Albert and Mt Victoria finishing at Odlins Plaza: Isla - 3:30:45; Stephen 3:39:40.
Total times 17:25:24 and 17:35:32 - a very close finish over the distance.

Hugh Taylor was a very late ring in for his work team, called in to complete the Miler Leg 4. He raced round in a fast 3:13:27 gaining a place for his team too.
