The Long Run - Spring Edition

BREAKING NEWS: CRUSH THE CARGILL IS A FRAUD

Welcome to ‘The Long Run’. This is the quarterly ‘E-Zine’ Spring edition for paid subscribers.

I think this might need a new name. Danny Jones started his newsletter called ‘Lessons from the Long Run’. I can’t even compete with the guy on the internet! Feel free to email me your suggestions or drop them in the comments.

Thank you to all paid subscribers. I greatly appreciate it. Your monthly support has helped me take this little idea in my head and bring it to life.

When I started this thing in January, one of my concerns was, “What am I going to write about when there are not as many races over winter?”

Well, what a winter it has been. I found myself trying to figure out how to fit it all in. We’ve had the highs of UTMB through to the massive lows of losing members of our trail-running community.

This weekend, we had the Rakiura Challenge and Abel Tasman Coastal Classic. Next weekend, we have Taupo Ultra and Crater Rim. They’re coming thick and fast now. The TrailrunningNZ Event Calendar is taking a hammering. It feels like we’ve officially hit the race season!

Anyway, that’s enough waffle from me. I appreciate your support once again. I hope you get something out of this extra content.

October Paid Subscriber Giveaway

I’ve just finished watching the below 2 videos over the weekend. They follow Sally McRae on her quest for the 200-mile grand slam in Murica’.

I’m in awe of her perseverance and straight-out willpower. I can’t even begin to comprehend how you attack some of these races🤯.

So this month, 3 copies of her new book are up for grabs!

Nothing fancy about this one. Comment below or email saying you want your name in the hat for the draw.

Full disclaimer: I haven’t read her book yet😂, but it’s on the list.

That's a wrap.
