Frontrunners walk

Just a reminder that this Sunday (10 June) is our first Frontrunners walk.  Same time (9am), same starting place (outside Freyberg).   See you then.

Sunday 18 February – no Sunday run

As this weekend is the Cigna Round the Bays, there will be no Sunday group run. Good luck everyone, and especially to Paul, Matt and Bruce who are doing the half-marathon!

Rainbow Fun Triathlon 2018

As part of the Pride Festival Wellington Frontrunners and DSW Swim Club are running a fun triathlon on Saturday 3 March. Registration is FREE. There’s a sea swim (800m), a cycle (10km) and a run (5km) – you can sign up as an individual doing all or just some of the events, and we will form teams from the people who enter. (Volunteers are also needed: fill in the registration form too.)

No run Sunday 21 January

As it is Wellington Anniversary weekend and lots of people are away, there will be no Sunday morning run this weekend. Wherever you are – you can still go running!

No run on Sunday 18 June

Due to the Wellington Marathon and with some people being away, there will be no group run on Sunday 18 June.  See you all next weekend!

 

Mid-week run

This week’s mid-week run will be on Wednesday 19 April (rather than Thursday). Same time (6pm), same starting point (Freyberg Aquatic Centre).

Cancellation of Rainbow Fun Triathlon 2017

The weather forecast for the weekend has got a lot worse over the past 24 hours – there is now a firm forecast of southerlies and heavy rain for both Saturday 11 March and Sunday 12 March mornings.

For that reason we’ve decided that it’s best for us to cancel the Rainbow Fun Triathlon for this year – basically on the grounds that it wouldn’t be any fun!

But we’ll try again next Pride Festival.
Cheers
Richard + Martin (DSW) and Antony (Frontrunners)

Change of location for 2 March run

This Thursday’s 6pm (2 March) run will start from the Laundry Lounge on upper Cuba St and head up the Polhil Reserve. https://www.facebook.com/LaundryOnCuba/

 

Change of location for Sunday 19 February run

Because of the Round the Bays run this weekend, this Sunday’s run (19 Feb) will occur in the Hutt Valley.  We’ll be gathering at the top of Cornish Rd, Korokoro, at 9am, and running towards the Korokoro Dam.   We’ll decide on somewhere for brunch afterwards! If anyone wants a lift, let me know.

Rainbow Sport and Culture Weekend

The Rainbow Sport and Culture Weekend is less than two weeks away.  The full programme is here: https://rainbowweekend.co.nz/programme/

It would be great to see a good turnout, especially at the Meet and Greet (the Mayor should be attending), and of course the fun run (or walk if you want to walk) on Sunday morning at 9am and the brunch at Karaka Cafe at Te Wharewaka at 11am.

Please note that the Capital Ocean Swim starts at 8am so parking will be in short supply so you might have to park a little further away so arrive early!
