Saturday, 1 Sep 2012, 12:45 to 13:25: NZ Road Champs Fun Run, Wellington×
As part of the NZ Road Champs, we are also organising a “Fun Run” which will be wide open for everybody, with entries on the day.
The Fun Run is scheduled for 12.45 (between the M19 and the SM/SW race)
Runners have the option of running 1, 2, or 3 laps of the national championships course.
Registration is $10 for adults and $5 for school children.
Entries will be taken on the day inside the Mac's Brewery events room from 10:30 am onwards.
This will be a great chance for your members who may want to run in a less competitive race and those who will be coming along anyway to support their friends/family/club to have a run. In addition, fun run participants will all get a free chocolate treat at the end and an entry into a spot prize draw. This is a great way to support a major championship event in our city and to further encourage participation in running.
Visit our event page on Facebook for event updates building up to the big day.
The organiser is Tim Hodge (Scottish), who will also be racing as part of the official Wellington Senior Men’s team.
