The Club uses a ‘pack’ running system. Each pack runs at a set pace and runners choose the pack best suited to their ability and fitness levels.
On your first visit to the Club, please notify the Club Captain who will place you in an appropriate ‘pack’.
In addition to the running packs, we also have an enthusiastic walking group. At certain times of the year the walking groups start earlier than the runners - refer to the Club Captain for details.
So for a brisk walk or a paced pack run, please join us on Sunday morning.
Our next major event will be the adidas Auckland Marathon on Sunday 31st October 2010.
The 10K Series in Auckland Domain, for runners and walkers, is held at 6 pm every Thursday evening (5.30 pm start for walkers) during Daylight Saving. You can choose to run or walk 3km, 6km or 10km.
Each year the Club hosts the Women's Event in Cornwall Park. This is a 5km and 10km fun run and walk for women and girls, to be held next year on Mother’s Day, Sunday 8 May 2011. The course starts and finishes at Auckland Jogger's Club, Puriri Drive Epsom.
Note that the Club is closed for about four Sundays each year.
