About Waimea Harriers

Waimea Harriers is a running/walking club founded in April 1965. The object of the club is to encourage and practice running and walking. Waimea Harriers is a group of people of all ages who get together to participate in running and walking for the benefit of their fitness and general health. Based in Richmond, Nelson, New Zealand we are very keen on promoting both competitive running and family participation and our members come from Atawhai to Tapawera to Takaka.

After events many of our members meet at a Tavern, for a few drinks (be it beer or orange juice). For new members this is a great time to get to know one another and cement friendships.
