 | Kayaking 1:30:00 [3] | |
| |
| Kayak in the Amuruks (same boat as we will race with in the PQ). Pretty uncomfortable and and hard work to paddle. Went out of the harbour entrance into the ocean found that there was 2-3 m breaking swells out there. Sonia was so scared that she couldn't speak. Turned around and paddled back in surfing down the waves without mishap. |
| Trek 8:43:49 [3] ** +1330m | |
| ahr:114 max:154 |
| Trek from Whangamata. Up a big hill and then down a river. Was supposed to take us 4-5 hours, but the track was slower than anticipated. Did the last 5 hours in the dark heading down a stream with slippery rocks and large waterfalls. Was dangerous in places and we kept having to backtrack and go bush to find ways around the waterfalls. |

| In the hills above Whangamata. Did this ride with Rob G in the summer and it was wicked. This time half the track was slips from all the recent rain, and half of the bike ended up being a carry. |
