FREE trial at Trentham United Harrier and Walking Club
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.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15% ... It is complicated
