WAITRI 2020
The Kids WAITRI is a new multi-sports event that aims to get kids active by bringing the experience of gaming off the sofa and into the bush and the paddock.
It introduces kids to triathlon and adventure racing, but has a unique twist. The event also includes paintball as one of the event disciplines, so kids get to combine their gaming skills with biking and running.
No other event in New Zealand or in the world right now, can offer this activity as part of a kids multi-sport race. The event also gives kids an opportunity to be part of the replenishment and sustainability of the environment by making a valuable contribution to the conservation of Fensham Reserve.
There is a short course for kids, aged 5-7 years old, which will take place in the surrounding paddocks at Borderlandz Paintball, and a more challenging course for kids aged 8-17 years old, which includes two 3.5km mountain bike legs along a traffic-managed Upper Belvedere Road and a marshalled 2.5km trail run around the Fensham Reserve circuit.
The cost is $15 for 5-7 years old (or $10 for the first 25 registrations) and $25 for 8-17 years old (or $20 for the first 25 registrations). Numbers are limited in each category.
A whānau member can accompany a participant on the course in the 8-17 year old category.
Please email kiaora@createasplash.co.nz to let us know the participant you would like to accompany on the course.
Don't have a bike? Get in touch as we may be able to source one for you.

Coming away nicely in its pot with Spring growth.
Peonies are beautiful flowers in the garden, roselike in appearance. Ideally they need a sunny sheltered spot as the blooms are large, and a square metre of garden to spread out in. They die down below ground level in winter and come away in the Spring with new growth. They are reasonably drought tolerant with their thick tuberous roots.
The flowers picked while still in bud are popular florist blooms.
I have pictured some peony flowers but I cant tell you whether this peony will be one of these or something different. Its a potluck in more ways than one.
The potted plant in the terracotta colour plastic pot is the Peony on sale.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.
