We are the largest group of runners and walkers in the Upper Hutt valley. Our Club is built around friendly local people who just enjoy running and walking at all ages and ability levels.
Our goal is to encourage people of all ages to get fit in an easy and fun way, and those that are fit to get faster.
So come along and give us a trial.

Club Road Champs
Trentham Memorial Park
We had a nice sunny day for our Club Road Champs. We used a new course this year, starting and finishing at the Clubrooms and running along the River Trail/Moonshine Park out towards Moonshine Rd entrance and back.
The Club Ladders have also been updated, looks like there's close competition in the Masters Men (currently only 10 points difference between 1st & 4th), Masters Women (only 2 points between Michelle and Sonja) and the Masters Womens Walking Ladder (only 5 points between Jackie & Viv).
With only 2 races to go for the runners and 1 for the walkers, it might be very close this year.
