Athletics Canterbury encourages everyone to participate and connect through our varied programmes and events. Our many options for participation are aimed at improving health, providing connection with others and local community.

We realise that not everyone wants to join a club. But that shouldn’t stop them from entering our events.

Featured Events

  • “My favourite events are the relays - they are challenging and hugely rewarding. Great to be in a team of like-minded people instead of just running for myself”

    — AJC

  • Second year of running the Boulder Bay Classic and loved every moment of it! Not only did I take fifteen minutes off my time but met and ran with great people. Well organised and will be doing it again next year

    — Shaun Hedley

  • Will I do them again this year? You bet I will! I have been rallying around those part-time running mummies again to build up to the 10km mark and to join me for the series this year. I am looking forward to seeing the hills, harbour and friendly faces from the community again from last year.
