It was the winter of 2018 when gym friends started a group for casual running to incorporate another type of activity in their health routine. Group slowly gained momentum and many new runners started to join for a 5 KM run every Wednesday. During the covid lockdowns, Wednesday Night Pacers attracted many runners from different walks of life and became one of the mainstream running groups of Karachi. Today, with more than 60 members out of which half have completed full marathons both in local and international events and nearly all of them have completed half marathons; is considered to be the largest group in Pakistan with such distinction.

Founding member Danish Raza has been instrumental in assembling this group, coaching individuals, and organizing events. It is his vision that has become reality in the form of WNP. With many national and international records under belt for WNP members, there are aggressive plans for the future to represent Pakistan in major Marathons around the world.
