COVID 19 UPDATE
We are keeping a close eye on the changing face of the situation here in NZ. The WAI run fest is not on until November 2020 so for now the event will be going ahead as planned. Obviously the world is changing on a daily basis so we will follow Government guidelines as these come to light. If there is reason for us to postpone the event come November, then we will. All updates will be announced in the months prior to the event regarding this, so you will have adequate notice. Please understand that we will do everything in our power to put on the event for you, but at the same time we must respect your safety, and will make a call in the best interests of all involved.
