<p>Kia ora welcome to another episode of Chafing the Dream with Mal and Dwayne. </p><p><br></p><p>We start with the usual updates of our training runs. Mal gearing up for the Mile Series and Dwayne gearing up for the Taupo 100k (1.5 weeks out). We talk about Mal being 28 weeks pregnant and running/weight lifting. Mal continuing to make little gains in the gym room. Meanwhile Dwayne brings in the down hill speed sessions resulting in some wild DOMS! </p><p><br></p><p>Mal and Dwayne announce some local PSA starting with Shannon Leigh Litt running an ultra a day for 1,000 days!! It is just wild. We briefly talk about how often we saw her in Whangarei and excited to see what she will be doing next. <br>We recap the <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thefoodalchemistnz/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Food Alchemist</a> session with Shaun La Franco. We feel it is always good to talk about the importance of nutrition especially optimising your nutrition. Congratulations to Chris and Helen at the Hut HQ doing their first live event with more to come. </p><p><br></p><p>There are two upcoming events <a href="https://raceroster.com/events/2026/119293/northland-waste-kerikeri-half-marathon-2026" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Kerikeri half marathon</a> on 21st November and Chafing the Coin Collection the week before on the 15th November.
