Walk / Run and Chat Program
In 2024, we introduced a new format for our Summer Run competition — the Walk / Run Social Program.
For 2025, we’re excited to bring it back with a new name — the Walk / Run and Chat Program!
This program is perfect for walkers and runners of all backgrounds and experience levels. It’s a great way for families and individuals alike to enjoy an evening walk or run while catching up with others. Expect plenty of laughter, encouragement and friendly conversation in a relaxed and welcoming group setting.
Program Details:
- When: Friday evenings at 6:30pm during the Summer months
- Distances: 3km or 5km options to suit all ages and abilities
- Start times:
- Walkers and Go Markers – 6:30pm
- All other runners – 6:45pm
- Handicaps are applied retrospectively to determine weekly handicap winners.
Each week, both line honours and handicap winners are celebrated — with chocolates for the winners and plenty of post-run chat to make it a fun and social evening for everyone.
