We're super stoked to see Oli Chignell selected to don the black singlet for his maiden World Road Championships in September 🖤🤍

Our own 28-year-old star will compete in the half-marathon off the back of his 1:02:34 performance in 2025, which made him the fourth fastest New Zealander of all-time over the distance.

We're very proud and can't wait to see you compete in Copenhagen Oli!

Some of you might have seen that the club run/walk on our winter program for the 20th June had a mystery location......well it is a mystery no longer. Our club has kindly been invited by Caversham to join them at Waldronville for their club cross country. Club members of all ages and stages are welcome. Please enter via this link.....

Please enter before 8pm on 17th June.

We would love to see club members there. Caversham were nothing short of amazing when we found out from them that there was a clash with the revised TK Cowan date. They have gone out of their way to accommodate us and we are so thankful! They not only moved their club event, but invited us too!

Also - don't forget to enter the Barnes Cross Country this Sunday

We'd love to see as many HCU athletes competing for Otago in the blue and gold colours as possible. The national club relays are a lot of fun too. HCU has a proud record of entering teams in these and we've seen some great efforts in recent years and even a national title and another podium spot last year.
