If you enjoy running or walking why not come and join us on Thursday nights at 6pm from our club rooms in Trentham Memorial Park (Bartons Road Entrance). We have a few packs that head out around the local trails based on ability and there are regular stops to allow people to catch up and/or rest.

We are a friendly and social club that cater for a wide range of abilities and ages. Our members enjoy a wide range of disciplines including, trail running, half and full marathons, 5k and 10k races, mountain running, ultra marathons, adventure races, orienteering, traithlons and multi sport events, walking and of course, cross country (Harrier season). So no matter what your goals are you are more likely to succeed by talking and training with us and there is much more fun to be had in group training!

Feel free to get in touch with myself or the club directly and join us on a few of our runs completely free. If you decide to join, our social member fees are a little over a dollar a week and competitive members are around $3 per week, paid annually. Extremely good value and more affordable than the gym!

If you cant make Thursday nights we also train on Saturdays during Harrier season (April to September). We have some open days coming up on Saturday 31st March and 7th April at 1.15pm from our clubrooms.

Suddenly The Nights Are Getting Chilly

Fire and Emergency New Zealand - Lower Hutt

It’s too soon to say that summer is over, but the nights are definitely getting cooler, and some of us are starting to think about getting that electric blanket back onto the bed.
For us, that’s a good time to remind everyone about these electric blanket safety tips because we know that worn and old electric blankets can cause a fire, and possibly even an electric shock.
So as you get yours out of the cupboard, have a good look at how safe it is, and if need be, replace it in those pre-winter sales that can’t be very far away.

• Worn and old electric blankets can cause an electric shock, fire and possibly even death.
• At the first sign of wear have your electric blanket checked by a qualified electrician.
• Replace your electric blanket every five years with newer heat-protected models, which are safer and more energy efficient.
• Don't place heavy objects on the bed while the blanket is on.
• Make sure the blanket is always flat on the bed and that controls or cords are not twisted or caught between the mattress and the base of the bed.
• Twisted cords are a common cause of electric blanket fires.

Keep yourselves and your loved ones warm this winter, keep safe, and remember, if the worst should happen in your home…

Get out and stay out
In a fire, get everybody out and call 111.
And whatever you do, stay out.

Bamboo stalks give away

Michael from Pinehaven

35 sturdy bamboo stalks - most around three metres high - lying waiting to be given away. Takers must take all the parts (branches and leaves) of the bamboo with them.

Very useful as stakes but many other uses.

Say what you need

Ann from Relationship Wellbeing Specialist

To avoid criticism and blame in your relationship, talk about your feelings using I statements ("I feel...") and express a positive need ("I need...").

This means saying what you need, not what you don't need.

I need you to support me.

To avoid criticism and blame in your relationship, talk about your feelings using I statements ("I feel...") and express a positive need ("I need...").

This means saying what you need, not what you don't need.

I need you to support me.

I don't need you to tell me what to do.

Hear the difference?

People don’t usually think about what they need when they're upset. Instead, they think about what their partner should stop doing wrong.

Within every negative feeling there is a longing, a wish, and, because of that, there is a recipe for success. The positive need is about highlighting ways in which your partner can shine for you.

The question of the day:
 What is one thing you need right now in your relationship?
