AMI and Sport Wellington are partners in the hugely successful Round the Bays event that is held in February each year. They’re very pleased to now partner with Athletics Wellington to offer a fun run event especially for kids.
There are three options for the AMI Kids Waterfront Fun Run. Each event is $5 to enter and you can easily do this by going to www.athleticshub.co.nz and clicking on Book Now. Choose any of the following:
The 5km run will be timed and have placings recorded. All children who pre register will receive their own personalised race bib and everyone will receive an AMI Kids Waterfront Fun Run Certficiate. This will be personalised if you pre register as well.
PARENTS/SUPPORTERS - you are more than welcome to run alongside your child although you may be surprised how fast they go! This includes all races. Might be a good chance to get on those running shoes prior to the event.
The 1km and 2km events will start and finish at Frank Kitts Park – near the playground. Race bib pick up will be from the Chicago Bar on Queens Wharf.
The 5km timed Fun Run will start on Queens Wharf (near Chicago) where they’ll run 2.5km along the waterfront towards Oriental Bay, a little bit past the Band Rotunda and back (the same course as the Lifestyle Sports Waterfront 5km series).
There are also offers from AMI including the opportunity to collect an event medal from their offices throughout the months of December and January. Plus spot prizes from Sport Wellington and AMI on the day.
Book Now to make the most of all these offers. Hope to see you there on the 17th of December.
