Find out how to join us http://www.wootersrunners.com/join/
We are an incorporated group under Wooters Runners Incorporated. We also love coffee. And we want to share these loves with EVERYONE!!! Our main goal is to help people find FUN and JOY in running! Join at http://www.wootersrunners.com/join/
We are an open and accepting group, with a whole spectrum of runners in the posse- from runner/wa
lkers, to those training for Ultramarathons!! We would love for you to get involved- we have a range of regular events (that cater for a wide range of fitness levels), but also encourage you to use this group as a forum for organising spontaneous runs- if you are planning on heading out for anything from a slow stroll to a long trail run- why not post it in the group... You may just find yourself a buddy to join you!! Regular events that we are hoping to run throughout the year include:
- Monthly Social Run. These will change every month, but we will usually aim for them to be on a weekend, and will typically offer a 5km and 10km option. These events are a great opportunity to meet other Wooters, and get your fill of Wooter Spirit!! Obviously, afterwards we need to reward all our hard work- so there is always some form of shared meal/refreshments
- Monthly Rubbish Run. This is our little way of giving a woot about Newcastle, and giving back to the community! Once a month, after Newy parkrun, we don some very attractive and sweat-inducing blue gloves, and do a slow run (~5km) through the streets of Newcastle, picking up rubbish as we go! Obviously, afterwards we need to replenish ourselves with coffee and breakfast at a local cafe
- parkrun is a staple weekly event in the Wooter calendar, with Wooter representatives at most parkruns in the Region of Runners each weekend. If you happen to see a fellow Wooter on course, make sure to Woot out to them!! The highest density of Wooters can usually be found at Newy parkrun- and of course, there is always a post-parkrun coffee to be enjoyed afterwards! Additionally, there are regular Wooter RoR tourism weekends- to make sure that we get to see all that this beautiful region has to offer!!
- Wootervals (Wooters intervals session). Monday evening at 6:30pm. Locations varies between the oval near Nobby's beach and the turnaround point at newy parkrun . On the 1st Monday night of the month we join in with the Maryville Magic Mile event at 6pm. Further details posted weekly!
-Night Owls happens most weeks. Keep an eye on the group discussions for the details. They are for those with a slightly more adventurous taste in runnning- trail runs (usually 10+ km) in the dark! BYO headlight, and see how much wildlife you can spot!! (10 points if you see an owl!)
- Impromptu runs- organised by anyone in search of a buddy!
- Wooters Birthday Bash! An annual event taking place around the 9th of May!! Bring your festive feathers ;)
Get involved Wootbags, and feel the love!!! We run because we give a woot… About running, about each other, and about the world around us!!
