It is with both contentment and fulfilment, that I announce WERG has officially closed down for business. Early in January I informed all the active WERG runners that running sessions and any business for that matter, would no longer take place.
-
WERG commenced in 2014 with myself and my father, bringing together family and friends with the aim of improving running in a social and motivational environment. It was this entire year that we devoted all profits to charity and in 2015 officially became a business. Since 2014 to the end of 2019, WERG saw hundreds of runners come through its “doors”. From your runner who could hardly run one km, to your sub 18 minute 5km runner, to your naive 18 year old and your 70 year old runner enjoying their last running days; WERG had them all.
-
I have made the decision to close WERG as I am embarking on a new challenge in my career as a teacher and no longer am able to focus on both effectively. In addition to this challenge is a desire to start a family in the near future with my wife.
-
I am very thankful for the experiences that I have shared with the WERG community. I hope that all runners and anyone involved with the group have learnt valuable lessons around running and life in general. I would specifically like to thank all the runners involved in the business, without you all, the father-son dream many years ago would have never come to fruition. Along with all those runners, I’d like to extend a thank you to the following people or businesses for their contributions to WERG or myself directly or indirectly over the years:

Hey everyone,

WERG is now closed until the new year for Christmas holidays. I would like to thank everyone involved in the business this year, from the runners, any guests, sponsors and my Father Mark, who also assisted the coaching here and there. Congratulations to Kathy Wilson for attending the most sessions this year and Angela Kamarinos for stringing the most consecutively together. Have a great break and Christmas!

Thanks

Oli
