10km Road Champs

Athletics Wellington · Club Champs

The one where everyone lines up together. This year, the 10K is its own race — juniors, seniors and masters all racing side by side over four laps at Reservoir Road, Wainuiomata. It’s also the last stop for winter series points and medals.

The course

Same venue, same road as the 5K Champs three weeks earlier — Reservoir Road, Wainuiomata. This time it’s four laps of 2.5km, and everyone runs it together in one race: U20s, Seniors and all Masters grades on the road at once.

Parking — Tighter than usual this time. The grass area will not be open for parking, so if you're not there before 9am, plan to park at Richard Prouse Park or at the end of Hine Road and walk up (about 5 minutes). Car-pool if you can — spaces are limited.

Before you race: entries and bibs

Who can enter — Any athlete registered as "Competitive" and "Active and Financial" in Athletes NZ Gameday by 11:59pm, Thursday 10 September. If your Scottish membership is current, you're covered.

Your bib — If you've already got a bib from an earlier interclub event, use the same one. Lost or forgotten yours? Temporary bibs are available on the day — just remember to hand it back at race end. Wear it on the front of your club singlet.

Running up a grade? — Want to race in an older grade than your age allows? Email Daryl by 5pm Thursday 10 September with your full name, date of birth and the grade you'd like to run.

On the day: good to know

Club tents are welcome — get them up to the course by 9:00am.
Medals go out straight after the race: Centre medals for the first 3 registered Wellington Centre athletes home in each grade, plus Winter Series and season medals for everyone.
Arrive early if you want a car park at the venue itself — after 9am, it's Richard Prouse Park or Hine Road.

See you back on Reservoir Road
