  • Walking on Sunshine

      25 March 2017

    Kia orana

    My walk of Te Araroa #thelongpathway, has been a dream come true for me - both the opportunity to complete a walk the length of our unique Aotearoa New Zealand & to be able to fundraise for the Time To Thrive To Stay Alive Charitable Trust #Tripleteez #MangereBikeFIT

    And, thanks to your special generosity, $25,668.34 has so far been raised

    The Givealittle fundraising page will continue accepting donations for 14 more days, until April 7th - so please do spread the word if you believe, as I do, in this worthy cause

    And I continue to walk #teararoa most days - whether in my 'hood or in other locations I visit around my beloved native homeland - & will update with posts on www.facebook.com/redwalksteararoa

    Thank you again ENORMOUSLY for your generous support - you have made a world of difference

  • Coming to you from windy Wanaka

      29 January 2017

    Kia orana dear Supporters

    We have raised a whopping $19,529.80 thus far thanks to your hugely generous contributions :)) ~ Meitaki to each of you

    I am currently in Wanaka ~ just 500km away from Te Araroa SoBo finish point at Bluff ~ and feeling like I'd like to slow things down as I know this last section will rush by too rapidly otherwise!

    Keen to see my family & friends again, keen to keep walking ... life keeps you on your toes! Whatever, we want to #KeepTheWheelsSpinning ! Go #Tripleteez Go #MangereBikeFIT

    Happy Sunday everyone, wherever you may be. And thank you greatly for your support

  • Cape Reinga to Mangere complete

      6 June 2016

    Kia orana

    Thank you for your ongoing generous support

    We celebrated the first 600 km of my walk of Te Araroa, from Cape Reinga to Mangere, in May and I can't wait to rejoin the Trail again in Spring

    My aim is to raise a total minimum of $30,000 for Mangere BikeFIT/Time To Thrive To Stay Alive Trust by 8 April 2017, when I will have completed the entire Trail to Bluff

    In the meantime you may like to follow updates through public page www.facebook.com/Red-Walks-Te-Araroa-836859896425800/ or new Instagram account #redlikethecolour
