THE NINJA RUN CITY FINALS 🥷🏃🔥

One of the things we love most about Ninja Run is that it’s for ALL ages and abilities. You don’t have to race the clock - you can simply come along, have fun, challenge yourself, and enjoy the course at your own pace.

BUT … for those who love competition, we decided to turn things up a level 👀

We invited back the fastest times from each category to compete in our very first Ninja Run City Finals! With marshals on the course, official timing, and race mode activated, the energy was next level 🔥

A huge congratulations to all our finalists and winners - and to our OFFICIAL FASTEST NINJA: 🥇 Scott Davies - 10:25

What an incredible event and an awesome showcase of speed, skill, determination, and community spirit.

We are going nationwide and we want to know - should your town be on our list? 👀

A massive shout-out to these legends from St John's College, Hamilton 🥷💥

These guys have been with us through thick and thin this April. They were there for the heavy lifting to help us pack in, and they were right back at it today helping us pack out 🙌

The Ninja Run is a huge operation, and we truly couldn’t have done it without them. They brought the muscle, the hustle, and that signature St John’s rugby team spirit that kept the whole team going🏉💪

Cheers for the hard work, boys. Good luck with the rest of your season!

Wowee what an amazing few weeks at The Base Shopping Centre! We are so proud of all the ninjas that came and took on the course - 2.5kms of inflatable fun across all weather!

There were so many highlights that we can't name them all but here are some standouts:
🥇visits from Huntly School + Benneydale School
🥇meeting former All Black, Aaron Cruden, out on the course!
🥇working around a cyclone but discovering the course is way more fun in the rain!
🥇holding our first ever City Final - photos coming soon

We know we are making something so special - and it started right here in Hamilton! Next stop: a nationwide tour so all of Aotearoa can experience the magic 🥷

Stay tuned for updates!

The search for Hamilton's Fastest Ninjas concludes tomorrow when our residency at The Base comes to an epic conclusion with the CITY FINALS starting from 3 PM 💪🥇
