A running and athletics club based in the clubrooms at the cul-de-sac in Neil Hunt Park, off Tarawera Road in Lynmore, Rotorua. The club was formed in 1991, when three local clubs joined together to become Rotorua's only athletics club.
The club runs regular running and walking groups, and dedicated running and walking clinics from January to May for the Rotorua Marathon, the half marathon and the 10km race. The Rotorua Marathon and the Kingsgate Half Marathon are among the events the club has helped run.
Membership and subscriptions for the financial year starting 1 April 2026 can be paid online, and remain valid for 12 months from the date of payment. New members register through the club's online portal, and existing members renew by logging in and choosing Renew. Membership forms are also available as a PDF. Access to the clubrooms is by security code, which is issued to members who organise and run club events.
The club's history includes long-serving volunteers, among them a former president who was an Athletics New Zealand board member and a couple who were honoured for 30 years of service to the Rotorua Marathon.
Our pick in Lynmore for a runner who wants a club with a long history in Rotorua.
