I was the first racechair to complete this event in the solo section. This event was a lot more difficult than I originally thought, 160 km (100 miles) around the Lake Taupo Lake. It was very hard due to the 23km before the course even had a flat!!! At 60km my handle bars snapped off…
In this fantastic event I manage to get hand controls in an old car and drive around the small Waikaraka Park dirt track, smashing into other cars. I fully recommend to anyone they take part in one of these events, its not so much about winning (but that is obviously the aim) as it is
This is a wonderfully scenic event running around Huntly area, out as far as the Huntly East Mine. This course is no longer suitable for racing wheelchairs.

After returning to New Zealand from being in the UK visiting family, I slept one night, woke up the next day, did this race, and the nex tday (Monday) started at Auckland University for my B.Ed Primary Teaching degree.

My coach at the time (Blanche Herbert) was happy with my effort and times, due to the distractions and caliber
Pack n Pedal run this wonderful course from Albany Kristin School, the one event caters for 40km and a 100km course. Both years I competed in the 40km section. Starting at Kristin, going up the massive Albany hill, along the hilly Coastville Road, Highway 16 and up the Greenhith Bridge. First time I achieved a
I carried the Common Wealth Games batton up Queens Street, Auckland. Being new to publicity photos I was unsure of how to smile.
Swim – 1500m (2 x 750m laps) Bike – 40km (2 lap bike course) Run – 10km (1 lap run) This was my first big event, not to mention I had never been in a handcycle before (I collected it on the way down to Mt Maunganui for the race the next day), as well
