About this race
The Honest 10 is a monthly flat run and walk on Wellington’s waterfront, starting and finishing at Freyberg Pool in Oriental Bay. Hosted by the Wellington Harrier Athletic Club, it offers an accurately measured out-and-back course, with 10 km and 5 km options, and early starts available for both distances.
The route follows the harbour edge and returns the same way, making it easy to pace and useful as a regular fitness check. The 10 km suits runners chasing a personal best or using the event as a benchmark, while the 5 km gives beginners, walkers, and social runners the same waterfront setup without the full distance.
