Wren's Running for Camp Quality

  • Waitomo Trail Run

    On Saturday, I took part in the 5km Waitomo Trail Run. This wasn't one of the Kiwi Aramex races, just another one for fun! It was hard work with lots of hills, stairs, mud, cow poop and a couple of fences to deal with, but some amazing scenery and the opportunity to have a photo in the Ruakuri cave before we started, too! I was not sure what time to aim for because I had no idea what the course would be like, but I ended up with 33:30, and was 3rd female finisher, so that was pretty cool!

    Only a couple of weeks until the 9km "Walk n Wag" so I need to get back to some longer distance training runs for the next little while.

    My first Kiwi Aramex event was on Saturday 28th March. I completed a 7km trail run and managed to set the bar extremely high for myself by coming in first woman, and 3rd overall! (I think the fast runners all picked the longer events, lol).

    Thanks for your support so far - spread the word because there's still a long way to go. :)
