Last weekend I competed in the NZSS 3D Multisport race held
in the Redwoods Rotorua. Sunday the day of competition produced calm beautiful
weather down on Lake Okareka. Starting with the 4km kayak I was able to pull
away from the female field and come out 2nd in the male’s race. Onto
the mountain bike I surprised myself and continued to stretch my lead and
overtake the 1st boy to lead into the 2nd transition.
Heading out onto the 6km hilly run I was feeling strong and was only overtaken
in the last 2km of the race by the leading male. When I crossed the finish line
I was so stoked to finish just over 1 minute behind the 1st male and
over 14 minutes in front of the next female. I also broke my previous course
record by 12 minutes. “I love the 3D race; it’s such an awesome event!! And
really cool to be competing alongside Richard and Elina Ussher previous Coast
to Coast Champions!!” Thanks to my sponsors SUBWAY and BALANCE NUTRITION who
have helped me along the way to success!!
Also during the weekend I was lucky enough to receive my new
Mal Board made by SONIC SURF CRAFT. Loving the new design and the idea of
getting to paddle a completely NEW board!!! Can’t wait to take it for a spin
later on in the week!!
