Kauri Run

On November 21st, Brian and I completed the Kauri Run. It is a run from Waikawau Bay, on the east coast of the Coromandel Peninsula to Colville, on the west coast. There are two options, the shorter run of 13 km, or a longer version. The longer version finishes at Coromandel town.
Neither of us had done any running training. Brian was in good shape though, he was really fit after being on the farm. I had been on the farm too, but instead of losing weight and getting fit, I got injured and ate too much!
So the end result was that Brian bet me by two beers, or 34 minutes in layman terms!
I really enjoyed the run/walk, it was really scenic, and a great challenge.
