Hume Fun Run/walk

5km & 10km Walk/ Run - Free Community Event

Lace up for our 40th Anniversary Fun Run & Walk!

Join the HUME team to hit the ground running (and walking!) to celebrate a milestone 40 years in the business. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or a causal stroller, this event is for you and your family. It’s not just about crossing the finish line; it’s about celebrating our journey, our community and the steps we’ve taken together. Join in, get active and have fun.

Enjoy a scenic route starting at Kaitkati’s iconic War Memorial Hall, making your way past the Dave Hume pool through Kati walkways, a Hume family kiwifruit orchard, past Hume Pack-N-Cool, then back through the streets to where you started. A loop designed for all ages and abilities, including prams.
