Round The Bays Steaming Ahead Sunday
Hi East Auckland neighbours,
The Ports of Auckland Round the Bays fun run is back on this Sunday following Auckland's drop to alert level 1.
Now in its 49th year, Round the Bays is one of the biggest events to be held in New Zealand this summer.
More than 25,000 people will take part in the event that attracts participants of all ages and fitness levels ranging from professional runners to people aged in their eighties.
The event kicks off at 9.15 am in Quay St and takes in beaches along Tamaki Drive including Okahu Bay and Mission Bay.
It finishes at St Heliers.
Are you planning to take part?
If so, how are you going to play it?
Will you be a walker talker, a serious runner or dusting off the roller skates?

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
