We are off to Wanaka tomorrow. Wanaka is a small town on the South Island of New Zealand (Upper Hutt is on the southern tip of the North Island). Vaughan is going to compete in Challenge-Wanaka. An Ironman distance race. It should be a great adventure. It will be his 4th Ironman. I get nervous watching him race, but I know he will do well. His mum (Anne), Gran, Uncle and Aunt (Bruce and Claire) will all be coming down along with our friend Ally from Australia. It should be great fun. There will only be about 200 competitors at any one time on the course (120 individuals, teams are allowed as well). It should be totally different from being at an Ironman owned race where there are generally 2000 competitors. Should be low key but maximum effort from the competitors.
The race website is www.challenge-wanaka.com
