After a busy week travelling around the Waikato and Bay of Plenty it was great to get out in the sunshine on to of a hill this morning!
This afternoon I finally got round to painting the bathroom!

The official photos came through from the Tikitapu trail run today. It has also been confirmed as 24.5km rather than the advertised 23km!
Here’s me, clean and dirty, at the start in the Redwoods and at the finish at Lake Tikitapu (Blue Lake).

A day out getting up high on the mighty maunga – Te Aroha. I didn’t really intend going all the way to the top as I wasn’t sure if my hip would cope. But by the time I got more than half way, it just didn’t seem appropriate to turn back without reaching the summit. The views across the Waikato, north to Coromandel and along the Kaimais were stunning.

Went out on the trails at Tarawera today. A bit of a step up for me to 22km with quite a bit of climbing. I felt really good out to the half way point but struggled in the last 5km coming back. Sustained upwardness on very tired legs. The weather was kind to us though. Four hours of run /walking and my legs know they did something today! Good tired though!
