This week we are off to Tawa/Porirua for the first time in a long time. Meet at the top of Raiha Street (ie up past Kenepuru Hospital) - by the mountain bike track - just before Elsdon Motor Camp, and Rob will direct proceedings. Back to his place for a BBQ at 97 Woodman Drive, Tawa, after your run. BYO. Some meat will be provided but bring along anything else if you like. Darts champs will be happening!!!
Run or walk an off-road Ultra Marathon, Marathon, Half Marathon or 10km, following the course of the Hutt River, from the foothills of the Rimutaka Mountains to the river’s estuary on the shores of Wellington Harbour. Or run or walk a 60km Ultra Marathon, starting at Cross Creek in the Wairarapa, crossing the historic Rimutaka Incline rail trail, and joining the Marathon course at Kaitoke.
The weather looks like it will be a pearler for Saturday, so we will meet at the Onehunga beach end of the Onepoto Peninsula -- NOT by the Rowing Club where we normally do. The idea is that we can have a little picnic, possibly a swim, and maybe even a BBQ (gas only - no open fires) after we have finished whichever one of the loops that we are individually up to.
To get there take the main road to Titahi Bay and quite near the end turn off right up Thornley Street, from there up over the hill and down Whitireia Road to the beach.
