The inaugural RUN AKAROA.
History was made this weekend at one of the most beautiful towns of New Zealand with a participation of almost 1,000 runners on its first year — that’s something to celebrate, so a huge thank you goes out to those who was part of it.
We hope to see you all next year for another exciting weekend here at Akaroa.
A big shout out to all the kids who took part in the Kids Dash! Awesome to see so many young runners out there on the course having fun, giving it a go, and soaking up the atmosphere. Who knows… we might just be seeing some future 10km, half marathon, and marathon competitors in the years to come
