At NDRC, we’re not just a running club, we’re a community. Whether you're lacing up your shoes for the very first time or chasing your next marathon PB, you’re never just a number here. You’re part of something bigger: a team that supports, uplifts, and runs alongside you every step of the way.
Founded by Coach Daniel, a registered Level 2 Athletics Australia Coach, NDRC began with a simple dream: to create a running club that feels like home. No egos, no pressure - just real people coming together to move, grow, and have fun.
Daniel isn’t a full-time athlete or a business exec - he’s a family man with a day job, a passion for running, and a deep care for every single person who shows up. Dan coaches with compassion, purpose, and pride in every runner who turns up and gives it a go.
We’re proud of our amazing crew of volunteers - some who run, and others who simply love being part of something positive. Together, we’ve built a space where everyone belongs, regardless of pace or experience.
At NDRC, you’ll find:
Training sessions almost every day of the week
Programs for both beginners and seasoned runners
Friendly, inclusive group runs and events
A strong focus on community, connection and confidence
Youth programs in local schools to build resilience and life skills
And of course, plenty of laughs, support and high-fives
We believe in showing up, doing your best, and cheering each other on. We’re here for the early starts, the sweaty hills, the finish line feels - and most of all, for each other.
If you’re looking for a running club that’s real, relaxed, and full of heart - welcome to the New Direction Run Club. We’re so glad you found us.
