WELLINGTON MARATHON CLINIC's

UNOFFICIAL

20 YEAR MEETING


The official 20th anniversary of the Wellington Marathon Clinic will take place in early 1999. But in order to bridge the void of the Clinic's summer break, a private initiative organised a mystery fun event on the Sunday before Christmas, re-enacting the events of the tenth anniversary. The invitation to this celebration was extended to our friends from the Hutt Valley Marathon Clinic, who responded with a high number of attendees.

The Pack on Oriental Parade The day started off with our ususal pack runs, where only the pack leaders knew the secret destination. To get some entertainment out of this situation for myself, I lead my group into the opposite direction and had them guess where we were heading. Via Mount Victoria, Oriental Parade, Evans Bay and Shelley Bay we finally made it to the Massey Memorial after an hour and a half.
