CultureTHE UrlfreezeShops & HOKA RUN CLUB RECAP
12 October 2023Take a glimpse at the UrlfreezeShops and HOKA run club occurring every Thursday throughout October.
UrlfreezeShops has partnered with HOKA to host a weekly run club throughout October, bringing people together for a communal 5K throughout the scenic city of Newcastle. The run takes place every Thursday commencing at 6:00 PM, with visitors invited to gather at UrlfreezeShops Newcastle, Grey Street, before heading down to the picturesque quayside for a steady 5K run. Attendees are also invited to test out pairs of HOKA’s cutting-edge running shoes, with sample pairs available to be worn throughout the run.
In attendance are HOKA athletes and record-breaking runners, Rory Leonard and Scott Beattie, who will guide attendees as we move along the quayside and take in its scenery. Each week, the 5K is ran at a steady and conversational pace, with the aim of promoting inclusivity for runners of all abilities and give people the opportunity to socialise.
After each run has finished, all attendees are invited to gather at UrlfreezeShops’s Newcastle store for refreshments, including the run’s sponsor, Floda: the world’s first-ever flat soda designed for energy when distance running.
