The Honest 10 is a monthly running event taking place on 15 December 2024, around the Wellington waterfront, starting from Freyberg Pool in Oriental Bay. This event features an accurately measured out-and-back course, primarily flat, making it accessible for a range of participants.
Runners will head south along the waterfront, with the 10km course turning at the wind needle, while the shorter course diverts at an earlier point. The scenic backdrop includes views of the harbor and surrounding landscapes, adding to the overall experience of the run.
Organized by the Wellington Harrier Athletic Club (WHAC), the Honest 10 is known for fostering a welcoming atmosphere, making it suitable for both competitive runners and those looking for a casual outing. The event not only emphasizes accurate timing but also community engagement, as it occurs regularly, encouraging local participation. Post-race amenities may include refreshments and a social gathering area, providing an opportunity for participants to connect.
