If you can’t run but want to be involved, you could always be a volunteer 🙌

We’ve got some parkrun roles available for the next two weeks due to school holidays and we’d love you to help fill them!

This weekend we have: filled our spaces - thank you 🤩

Next weekend (18/7) we would love some volunteers for:
1x Pre-course Set Up
1x Finish Token Sorter
1x Report Writer
1-2x parkwalkers
1x Photographer

(And if the volunteers rain down ☔️, we can always create more volunteer roles!)

Well done Imogen!! 👏
This morning Imogen ran the Leith Harbour Free 10km time trial in Dunedin in a quick 44:30 which along with a new PB was a new course record for 15-19 women. Imogen is training for the Emerson half marathon in September.

Fun fact: The club offers weekly speed endurance sessions so get in touch if you have a running goal you want to achieve.

Network Waitaki Thank you for your generous sponsorship which will go towards purchasing a new high jump scissor mat. We know the kids will love it!!
Thank you to our club members who attended the awards evening on our behalf 😊
