The last race in the Auckland Xterra series and sadly the worst of the three I have completed. Nice part of Auckland at the very tip of the Whangaparoa Peninsula however a very limited course. A good forty five minutes running along the low tide line, something that I find becomes pretty tedious after about ten minutes. The remainder of the course was on farm land and some small bush trail finishing with a short burst along the beach. It took me 1:40 placing eleventh. To make my afternoon even worse my asthma inhaler died on me making me severely short of breath.
The old man ventured up with me though and completed the short course in about 1:30. Always a good buzz watching him cross the finish line.
