𝐄𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐝 𝐑𝐮𝐧 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐰 🖤💕 The EBRC is a community-run running crew, run by its crew members, for its crew members. It was born from a passion to improve mental and physical health. As a community movement, we strive to be welcoming, positive and empowering. We want to unite communities across New Zealand to be happier and healthier. Come run with us!

𝐃𝐚𝐲𝐬 & 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞:

Tuesdays & Thursdays, 6.30am (see posts for route details)

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬:

We meet at the start point and run approx. 5km.

We take a group photo so that other members in the group can see what they’re missing. Everyone sets off together, and people run at their own pace – how you feel on the day determines your gas pedal. Invariably, that means splitting into similarly-paced groups and chatting while we run, but no worries if you prefer to go solo and catch up at the end.

𝐍𝐨-𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐟𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐝:

The ethos behind the crews is that they are more social than competitive, so don’t be put off if you’re new to running. That said, if you’re a keen runner looking to improve, you’ll find like-minded people to share training tips with and help push you on.

𝐃𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠?

No.

The mental health benefits of running and human connection are undeniable, that’s why we’re proud to support the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand. This connection is very light touch – people don’t show up to be counselled… although there’s no better therapy than a run and a chat!
