    Something new I've created this year. I'd really appreciate it if you can help get it up and running by giving my page a follow, or better throw in a series entry 🏃‍♀️‍➡️🏃‍➡️. Another recovery weekend done right. Now wondering what adventure or race to do next... If you enjoy reading a little more about what went down last Saturday, here you go. I've written down more detail on how my 11th Kathmandu Coast to Coast Longest Day race went, along with a few paragraphs on the year leading into it. 2026 @coasttocoastnz . It probably hurts this much every time, I can never remember exactly. Enough to be sure I left it all out there again. My training block started pretty rough but ended surprisingly well which had me lined up ready to race at the front again. Patience was key on the run and then it was a case of just hanging in there till the end. Incredible performances from so many but a shout out to @hamish_elliottnz for getting his name well and truly engraved in the trophy again, absolute top class. Thank you very much to everyone that cheered me on out there and from afar, it is meaningful and I'm so lucky to have your support (still!). The Katana. Thanks Len for this beauty! Performs like nothing else on the Waimakariri. This will be its first C2C, and it can't wait. Freshly wrapped by @signmeupsigns This rig is ready to rock. Thanks @hubcycles for the final tune up. Legends. Still recovering from last weekend! Two days of digging deep with the @valley.ultra 24k run on Saturday then the @topsportkayaking 70km Waimakariri Classic River kayak race on Sunday. An opportunity to see where the body is at, test the systems and play with tactics. Love it. Yep, back again. Can't help myself. In 10 weeks time I'll be on the startline of the @coasttocoastnz 1-day event. There's no doubt my headspace isn't quite the same it was pre 2023 but there's no questions I'm still training thoroughly and I'll be racing hard on the day. Looking forward to it. The Kathmandu Coast to Coast School Academy helps young people get into multisport. These boys from Darfield High School are definitely setting themselves up well and on their way for a great weekend at the 2026 race. I had the honour to work with them for a few coaching days in the past month and pass on some of my experience to them.
