Wellington 10,000m Festival

Te Ahumairangi Ten Thousand

Our longstanding vision for the event is a fun opportunity for Wellington runners to work together in packs and support each other in running fast times and personal bests. It is also an opportunity for road or trail runners who have not run on the track before to try it out in a supportive environment. 

Programme for this event to take  place on Saturday 16th November

• 3pm: 10000m Walk
• 5pm: C Race for athletes running 40 minutes or longer
• 6:10pm B Race for athletes between 35 and 40 minutes
• 7pm: 10000m relay (teams of 25 athletes plus one team manager, one lap per runner, $25 entry for the team – entry via Google forms and not Gameday)
• 8pm: A Race for athletes faster than 35 minutes

The event is also doubling as the NZ Masters Championships. 

ENTRY INFORMATION
This year, we are introducing a $10 entry subscription. 

ENTER:  Please sign up to run even if you don’t want to run fast.
It helps the runners who are targeting a personal best if they’re surrounded by friends and club members who are running alongside them.

This event is supported by @musashinutritionnz
         

SOMETHING NEW
Please join a 25-person team for the new relay.
This will be a chaotic but fun event where people of all ages (5-95) and speeds can participate. We would love at least one Scottish team on the start line.
People can run in the relay and also enter as individuals in one of the 10,000-meter races.

In particular, we want lap counters and pacers to support our runners 

• (32 minutes, 35 minutes, 40 minutes, 45 minutes, 50 minutes and other requested times).
