All-paces run club in Takapuna

Rise 'n' Stride is the Project Sunrise weekly run club! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Much like all of our community events, this is a no-pressure environment and the only goal is to move for 30 minutes. It’s about being healthy - not about your pace.

So if you’re looking to challenge for a crazy PB, this maybe isn’t for you, but is perfect for anyone who:

- Wants to try running for the first time

- Anyone coming back from an injury

- Runners who want to run without pace targets

- If you’re looking for a recovery run mid week

📍Meet at Takapuna beach cafe

⏰6.15am

🏃‍♂️30 minute run, any pace

There's an optional (but encouraged) post-run ocean plunge + coffee with the Plunge Posse at 7.00am!
