50| Northland 100 and The VERT updates

<p>Kia ora and welcome to episode 50! </p><p>Wowza. Apologies for the coughing and the sick sounding humans.... but we made it through this one. </p><p>We start by bringing up Dwayne no longer competing in the VERT challenge due to a back injury. He survived the 14 days which meant 1400m. There are still plenty of days left in July for The VERT to challenge some poor souls of New Zealand. At this point there is about 20ish contenders. We mention our two locals, Patrick Kalin and Kirsty Hamlin. Check out the final contenders <a href="https://www.trailrunningnz.com/challenges/vertual-july" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">here</a>, if the link doesnt work go to TrailRunningNZ and follow along. </p><p>Dwayne and Mal recorded less than a week before the Northland 100 event. This local event is held by His &amp; Hers in the Glenbervie Forest. Dwayne and Mal will plan to be there supporting and possibly sneaking the mic in a couple peoples faces if they are up for it (or if we are better by then!!!). </p><p>For the Northland 100 we discuss the upcoming participants: https://my.raceresult.com/405868/ . Check them out on the link! </p><p><br></p><p>The code for the Kaitai trail run for 20% off is CHAFINGTHEDREAM. Congratulations to our winners, Jonny Martin and Ian Kleingeld for winning free entries to this beautiful race in Kaitai Forest. </p><p><br></p><p>Appreciate all our listeners.
