“Mid-week bash”

Fornightly mid-week group run/bike/climb.

5.45pm 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month.

Run: 10km. Largely Wither Hills based.

Bike: 20-30km. Largely Wither Hills Mountain Bike Park.

Climb: Top rope, sport, trad. Rarangi and Monkey Bay.

Focus on taking it steady over racing and enjoyment over timing/splits.

“Monthly Mission”

Monthly group run/bike/climb.

9am Last Sunday of the month.

Run: 20-40km.

Bike: 40-80km

Climb: Top rope, sport, trad.

Heading further afield to the peaks that tower above the Wairau plains. Were lucky to have Richmond Ranges, Nelson Lakes and the Sounds within reach.

Examples: Mt Fishtail, Mt Robert, Queen Charlotte track.

This is the core of the group. A bountiful supply of adventure and endurance in the shape of trails, nature, mountains, rivers, lakes, ocean and bush.

Again, emphasis on completion rather than speed and having a good time rather than suffering
