Hi Team,
There is a duathalon this weekend at glenbervie forest. I think it would be wicked opportunity for year 9-11 to go along and start getting ready for the bigger events later on in the year.

Duathlon + MTB or Road bike -Glenbervie Forest HQ

To kick off our Winter duathlon season we have a Duathlon from Glenbervie Forest HQ on Sunday 20th May. 0830 registration, 0900 start.
There will be the classic off road duathlon -short or long , with a very short course option suitable for younger children (all on forest trails),
There will also be a road bike option (age 13 upwards).
Sausage sizzle and a drink afterwards.
To get to Glenbervie Forest HQ head out along Ngunguru road and turn off at Maruata Road (where the Huanui Orchard Shop is) Go right to the end of the road and through the gates to the forest headquarters.
Our full winter duathlon programme will be out very soon with lots of fun and/or competitive events -even some triathlon options for the stoic athletes among us!

Hillary Extra Training



Hi Team,
We had a good session last week for the skit. I am thinking that Tuesday after school for an hour would be good. You should contact Eloise if you want to know what your part involves. Be proactive and come prepared. If Tuesday after school is no good send me a text. Liv

We have just had a few fabulous days running/fast pace walking/falling around some truly stunning locations within Tongariro National Park. Rob, Shaun, Grace, and Callum bush whacked their way all over the place. A fantastic experience and great training for Hillary, Bring It On.

Planning route choice



Can I hear from the Hillary team as to who would be available on Wednesday from 9am to 5pm? Text Liv. I need to know by Tuesday.
Hey WARTS
Can you please all have a look at this website and sort yourselves out to go down to these events. I think it would be really beneficial for you to go and have a run around in the 3 hour event.
