5 Reasons You Should Join HUMMINGBIRD Run Club.
Three of our earliest Runclub members take a break during our Monday track meet at Mahon Park.
Your next social chapter.
So you’re looking to join a run club? Maybe it’s to take your training to the next level, maybe to meet like-minded individuals, to become part of a supportive community? In this article, we'll run through five reasons why joining Hummingbird could be the best decision you’ve made since stretching your hamstrings that on time.
Camaraderie and Friendship
At Hummingbird, running is about more than just putting one foot in front of the other, but rather about forging connections, sharing experiences, and building strong friendships. Hummingbird sticks you right in the centre of a tight-knit, fast growing community of runners and socialisers. If you’re building up your fitness to cross your first finish line, or simply needing something to get you up on a Saturday morning, there's nothing quite like the camaraderie of doing it all together.
Motivation and Accountability
Sticking to a regular running routine can be challenging, especially when the alarm starts yapping on a Saturday. So let us get you up. You'll have a built-in support system to keep you motivated and holding you accountable, nicely though, we promise we won’t talk too much about it if you sleep in…
Whether it's meeting up for one of our group runs, sipping a post-run coffee together, or sharing training tips and encouragement, Hummingbird is here to help you stay on track and crush your goals.
Guidance and Support
Whether you're a beginner looking to improve your form or a seasoned runner aiming for a new personal best, our community is here to provide the encouragement, advice, and direction you need to succeed. From sharing training tips and routes to offering motivational pep talks and friendly competition, our members are always ready to lend a helping hand and cheer you on every step of the way.
Outside of our runners, Hummingbird is supported by a number of local businesses, keeping you caffeinated, well fed.. and maybe a little tipsy on Thursday nights…
A Social Stride
One of the best things about our run club is the variety of sessions we offer to keep things exciting. From weekly group runs to Saturday morning post-run treats and coffee, Thursday night social gatherings and Monday evening training sessions - there's always something happening to keep you engaged and motivated.
Not to mention, with the fast paced growth Hummingbird bird is experiencing, the continuous stream of new friends and faces allow for a constant expanding social circle, with strong friendships to be made every week.
Making a Difference
Last but certainly not least, joining our run club is an opportunity to give back to the community and make a positive impact in the world around us. By joining Hummingbird, you’re taking part in inspiring others to get outdoors, get their hearts pumping and most importantly, meet the amazing people that make up our beautiful city. We hope to make a difference, using our passion for running to uplift and inspire others, we would love your help in that.
If we still haven’t changed your mind, come along to any of our sessions to see for yourself - everyone is welcome. Not ready to run yet? No problem, feel free to join us for Saturday breakfast or Thursday night drinks!
