From the Speakmans' place.
Yes, Chris and Alison do have a bit of a climb up to their house but the plan is to explore the river trail this week. Mostly flat, so a chance to make an easy start to your training for the winter, work on your running form, or go a little further a little easier. BYO drinks and nibbles for afterwards.
Address:
120 Tirohanga Road
Lower Hutt
(Go about 100m past Melling Bridge, then left up the hill is Tirohanga Rd)
Black and gold meets are for all age groups from college age and above. The grades are Masters, Senior, Junior (U20), Youth (U18) and Under 16. Black and Gold programmes will normally cater for athletes from grade 14 up in terms of throwing implement weights, hurdle heights etc. However once the interprovincial training squads are formed we will cater for grade 12 up for any athlete wishing to gain more competition.
If you are a registered member of a club it's free to compete if you pre enter online (as clubs contribute to the bulk funding of Newtown Park). You must enter by 8pm the Thursday prior to each Saturday meet. If you enter on the day you pay $5 at the registration desk one hour prior to your event start time.

"RunFest is a weekend for trail runners, being held in Wellington on the 27-28 February. Put together by some local Wellington folks, it's two days of talks, practical sessions, information sharing, trail running films and geeking out with fellow runners.
"Speakers include Heather Anderson, current holder of FKTs for unsupported hikes on the Pacific Crest and Appalachian trails; Malcolm Law, who completed the High Five-0 challenge in 2015, climbing 50 peaks over 50 consecutive days; local running legend Roger Robinson; and trail running coaches, Mark Anderson and James Kuegler.
"This is something new for the trail running community and we're very excited to be putting it on. We'd love to see you there!"
