Rakiura Track (32km) in a Day

$847 donated
Given by 20 generous donors in 17 days

I'm planning to walk the Rakiura Track in Stewart Island with my friend Jen in a day. That's 32km of mountainous, rough and muddy terrain!

Southland

On the 25th September I'll be up before the sun rises and aiming to start and finish the Rakiura Track. The track is 32km long and usually completed over 3 days. I'm estimating it will take me about 12hours including food breaks, and taping blisters :) I'm lucky enough to have my mate Jen join me on my challenge so feel free to sponsor us both!

I love being outdoors but this will sure be a challenge!

Kia ora Claire and Jen, all the best for your giant stroll. I hope Jen packs some mid-track surprises to entertain you - I'm thinking of a certain panda mask amongst other treats. x
