At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I’ve been walking a bit lately…
We’ve been training as a team for the Oxfam Trailwalker event, and the highlights have included:
- Walking eight hours around the North Shore coast from Devonport to Castor Bay
- Doing the 16-Kilometre Coast-to-Coast walk from Auckland Central to Mangere twice in eight hours or so
- Walking from Kevin and Trish’s place in Three Kings out to the Otuataua Stonefields and back
We’ve been encountering heat, muesli bars, rain, sunscreen, blisters and <eeek> chafing, which for reasons of taste we don’t have pictures of 
It’s good to be able to stop at the end of the day, but scarey to think that if we do that on the night of the event in April, we’ll only be a third of the way there!
