11 Days Down, 1 To Go! 🙌
11 December 2025There were some trade offs made with today’s run, I traded a little extra sleep in the morning for a run in the heat (regretted that decision), and funnily enough it led to the next trade off which was to chase some shade and a change of scenery which saw me decide to point my nose to Tapeka. The shade of the bush was much appreciated, the stages of steep steps not so much, I loved the beach views of sandy and rocky beach but then headed up Rewa Place and straight into a gauntlet of yet another bunch of stroppy seagulls, intent on dive bombing/escorting me well out of their territory! It’s becoming quite a theme. Back over to town and up and down a few streets with a much needed hydration stop at the 4 Square and then back to where I started, beautiful Longbeach, being careful to avoid any proximity to what I assume is Mr and Mrs Seagulls nest, I’d had enough dive bombing for one day! I’d like to thank the Between Two Beers Podcast with Laura McGoldrick for keeping my mind occupied for most of it and to all the wonderful donors who are helping our cause! You rock!
