Wainuiomata Amateur Athletic & Harrier Club

Our members range in age from children under 9 to 70s, some of them being entire families. We enjoy a happy, friendly comradeship, and support and encourage each other in our pursuits. While some of us have been running since our school days others had not participated in any form of running until joining the Club. A few of us began as walkers and went on to running, others prefer to remain walkers.

We are a year-round Club and meet at our Clubrooms each Saturday at 2pm. We have several packs each catering for a different level of pace and fitness. On a Sunday morning several packs can also be seen doing their thing. Smaller groups meet during the week (mornings and evenings) at times arranged between themselves.

Our Club has a structured events programme, included in which are points races, our own pack runs and some with other clubs. Running and walking on the road and off-road on some of Wainuiomata’s great tracks is enjoyed by our members at the same time as sharing good company and friendship. We also organise social evenings for our members and their friends. Among our members are some keen half and full marathoners.
