Two weeks away from One NZ Godzone and teams are putting their finishing touches to training. Fear Youth were 7th at the last GZ but they're 3 years older, wiser and stronger now. They're probably fresher and in better shape having not raced in Canada two months ago. They'll be ready to charge. Definite Podium potential so stay tuned for all the action.

Iconic Kiwi Brand Macpac are major sponsors of One NZ Godzone this year. Support those that support our sport and in particular our Kiwi Brands.
I would say this track is in Fiordland somewhere ( maybe Dusky ). Jo and I had a similar experience around Lake Monowai a few years back.
However GZ this year will be much different to this, in the dry high country of Marlborough.

One NZ Godzone Schedule.
Godzone do things a little differently and judging by this schedule the are very conscious of the time factor commitment require for a large Expedition Race.
Team Registration is at 7am, Race Briefing is at 10am and Maps are handed out at 10.30am, Q&A session between 12.30 and 1pm and the Race Starts at 3.30pm. So 8 hours from Rego to Start. At many races it's 3 whole days that add a lot in accommodation cost. Teams traveling internationally to any race may want to arrive 2 or 3 days before but for locals at GZ they can literally arrive Wednesday afternoon and be racing 24 hours later.
The prizes will also be given out as the winning teams arrive at the finish. Once again they don't have to wait around and spend money on accommodation, they're free to leave. Some teams may stay around for a gathering on the second Wednesday evening. Top local teams can travel, race and be home in a week not two. Interesting concept. Click on image to enlarge.

New Zealand is lucky to have two quality Expedition races and while Coasteering and ocean swimming aren't new the exposed south coast of NZ is extreme! Warning it may be at night. That will make it Magnificent.

This is a great piece that showed on a National sports show featuring the Movember Athletic club. They had a great hit out at the Marokopa Munter finishing 4th overall and 3rd in the Mixed division just 20 points behind 2nd. The Munter was a solid 36 hour slog and their navigation was sharp in tough country so I think they're ready for a great performance at One NZ Godzone.

Close Competitive Racing at the Munter!
10 Points between 1st and 2nd and 20points between 3rd and 4th. Small decisions make a big difference and 1 checkpoint was the margin. Tiki Tour were an hour late leaving TA2 and were penalised 10 points per minute. Thatโ€™s tough but it was in the rule book. Both the team and support crew missed the instruction. Thatโ€™s why this was good practice for Godzone. Iron out communications and roles. It was also a consequence of the trip up from the South Island where flights were delayed and they were very rushed pre-race and details can easily be missed.
Technically if they hadnโ€™t lost the 600 points they may have won but then if they had left the TA on time we donโ€™t know if they would have scored more or less points. It would have been close I would say but the results are the results and Iโ€™m sure they will make sure thereโ€™s not a repeat at Godzone where they will be in the hunt at the front. You can't get away with one mistake in competitive races.
This was a great full 36 hour hit out and for a relatively new team like Movember Athletes club a great experience going through two full nights. An important learning curve on how they cope with the lack of sleep.

PRIME Exposure.
Anthony Gordon 's short documentary film that he produced by himself on a shoestring budget in Portugal is now available on Amazon Prime in the UK, USA and Australia. This is the kind of exposure our Sport needs outside our limited boundaries. It's likely to be seen by hundreds of thousands of people and for many it will be their first glimpse at AR.
He is on the search for more races so that we can lift the profile and exposure of AR.
Anthony Gordon Simply the Best.

Our Story

I have been covering Adventure Races around the World since 2015, including three World Championships. This page has all the latest News and Information from around the World.

I endeavor to tell the stories of amazing athletes and ordinary hard working people, who set goals to achieve what mere mortals would consider impossible. I attempt to fill in the gaps between the โ€œDotsโ€ from start to finish as they strive towards what for many will be a lifelong highlight. I will bring you all the Blood, Sweat, and Tears with in-depth analysis of the tracking systems. My coverage will be up to the minutes with all of the Agony and Ecstasy as teams complete the Ultimate, Co-ed, Team Challenge on the Planet.
