KAWAKAWA BAY FUN RUN

If you’re feeling a bit inadequate about not participating in the Auckland Marathon, don’t — just head on over to Kawakawa Bay and do a fun run instead. It’s a gentle 5km run suitable for prams and wheelchairs or a 10km route for those who want a bit more of a challenge. The event is to raise awareness of and support for mitochondrial disease. You can register today from 9am-1pm behind the “corner kitchen cafe” in Clevedon or tomorrow at the start line between 7am and 8am.

Tomorrow, 9am start, Whitford Point Reserve, Kawakawa Bay. Registrations: kids $28, adults $33, family pass (2 adults, 2 children) $73.
