"Before joining RWFL, I was tired of walking alone. Since joining, I’ve found a great community and an awesome place to make new friends. One of my proudest achievements has been completing my fastest 10km walk. I’d definitely recommend RWFL to a friend or family member!"

"I joined through friends and family who shared the same excitement and fitness goals. RWFL gives me everyday encouragement to stay fit and healthy while training at my own pace, with the wonderful support of our coach. Reaching 1,000 km, earning two medals and gaining the courage to run several marathons afterwards have been incredible milestones for me. My times have also improved along the way, especially with friends by my side!"

"I initially joined RWFL because of my interest in fitness and exercise as a hobby. In just five months, I found myself attempting my first 21km. That was a huge personal milestone for me and showed me how much progress I could make with consistency and support."

"I joined RWFL for exercise and the opportunity to socialise with like-minded people. Being part of a group with people who share similar goals makes staying active much more enjoyable. Taking part in the Progressive Marathon has been one of my favourite memories since joining."

"I joined Run Walk For Life because I wanted to become more active and improve my fitness, but I quickly discovered that it was about much more than exercise. The encouragement from the coach and fellow members keeps me motivated, and every session gives me something to look forward to. I’ve become fitter, more confident and have made great friendships along the way. RWFL has helped me stay consistent and enjoy my fitness journey."

Not at all. Many of our members start with little or no fitness experience. Our coaches will help you progress safely at your own pace.

Please speak to your healthcare professional before beginning exercise if you have a medical concern or have been advised to restrict physical activity. Always inform the coach of any relevant limitations so appropriate modifications can be considered.

RWFL members use the RWFL app to record their activities and distances. We can help new members get set up and show you how to log your sessions.

RWFL is open to all ages and fitness levels. Our focus is on creating a safe, supportive and enjoyable environment for everyone.

We meet three times a week at designated RWFL venues. Contact us for the latest timetable, venues and any changes.
