Weekly Report for Sunday April 11
- Wellington Runners & Walkers (WRW)
- Hi Everyone Zeesh! – I had to put a polyprop on to go for a run on Wednesday. Goodbye summer. Nevertheless, with the school holidays in full swing, no doubt some members will be away with their families to the likes of Tauranga to squeeze out the last benign days of the season. And others will be running the Moonshine ½ marathon and 10k. Best of luck for those participating.
