The Two Person Team Novelty 2009
Well the weather has looked after us for the last two events - the day before has been awful but the day of the race has turned out dry, calm and warm.
So a small group of walkers turned out for the second running of the two person novely event. The aim here is to complete six or eight laps of the Dehavilland Drive course between two person teams as close as possible to the 11:00am finish time - no watches are allowed.
Seven and a half teams took on the challenge. This year there was a lot more thought going on into who did what lap and at what speed. This lead to some interesting racing albeit nobody knew how well they were doing until the very end.
Some of the older wiser heads finished far too quickly - Arthur and Ivor are obviously moving far too well for their age!!! However Anne and Wacky combined best to finish within 29 seconds followed closely by Sue and Mike at 59 secs.
A great morning and a good event. Thanks to our helpers Marion and Trevor on the time and Lorraine on dog minding duties!! Thanks also to Pete and Marion for the use of Taranaki Sawmills cafe for morning tea - hope you have a great trip.
