Show Notes
Kia ora and welcome to episode 50! Wowza. Apologies for the coughing and the sick sounding humans.... but we made it through this one. We start by bringing up Dwayne no longer competing in the VERT challenge due to a back injury. He survived the 14 days which meant 1400m. There are still plenty of days left in July for The VERT to challenge some poor souls of New Zealand. At this point there is about 20ish contenders. We mention our two locals, Patrick Kalin and Kirsty Hamlin. Check out the final contenders here, if the link doesnt work go to TrailRunningNZ and follow along. Dwayne and Mal recorded less than a week before the Northland 100 event. This local event is held by His & Hers in the Glenbervie Forest. Dwayne and Mal will plan to be there supporting and possibly sneaking the mic in a couple peoples faces if they are up for it (or if we are better by then!!!). For the Northland 100 we discuss the upcoming participants: https://my.raceresult.com/405868/ . Check them out on the link!

Kia ora Welcome to a funnnn episode of several different voices besides the usual Mal and Dwayne yarning and yarning and yarning away. I don't know if you can tell at this point, but I (Mal) writes the pod description and truly believe nobody even reads this bloody thing. Anyways...
This week Mal and Dwayne share their recent training progress, Mal has an updated lift program which she is very excited about and Dwayne is staring down the barrel of the Taupo 100km in a little over 3 weeks. They also go over the recent results from the local half marathon, as well as Dwayne's experience running as the 1:40 pacer. Lastly the up coming mile series has both Dwayne and Mal very excited. And it's not just that Mal is excited to hear a measurement in the imperial units. The track has a special place in her heart and she's hoping more people will discover this passion. So hold on to your earbuds as this might turn into a track podcast for a few weeks. If you want to sign up to race The Mile you can do so here: https://hatea.run/event/the-mile/ Entry closes 4th Oct.
