Pūrongo Whakahaere o Hawke's Bay

I taua wā he rerekē to mātau wheako omaoma, mai i te "he aha tō tikanga 'he aha taku tere'?" ki te "Ka tono nui ahau i ngā hiko ia rua wiki". Heoi anō, i whakaae mātau ki te haere ki Napier ki te haere i tēnei mea oma. Mai i te pungarehu o tētahi pō i whānau mai ai a RFC (Running Footers Club) - he rōpū Rautaki o ngā kaiomaoma hiahia me ā rātou ake hongere Strava me Slack.

ŪPOKO II - 1 RĒHI TAKAWARE ME TE 8 MARAMA O TE WHAKANGUNGU

E kore au e hōhā i a koe ki ngā taipitopito nerdy mai i ā mātou whakangungu marama. Engari, anei tētahi whakataki ki te tīma RFC me te mātātoa i roto i ētahi tau.

Te whakamōhio atu i te tīma RFC:- Oliver, te Mihini. Kaha: te ōritetanga me te sass Strava. Ngoikoretanga: e whakaaro ana ko te physiotherapy, he rite tonu ki te whenua papatahi, ehara i te mea tūturu. I hainatia mō Hawke's ✔️ - Fraser, te Speed Demon. Kaha: tere. Ngoikoretanga: kāore e pai ki te whakapono ki ngā mea whakamīharo o te okiokinga, ngā mahere whakangungu, ngā omaoma pōturi rānei. I hainatia mō Hawke's ✔️ - Sonia, te Croatian Coyote. Kaha: kāore i te āta whakaaro ki te whakataetae. Ngoikoretanga: kāore i te āta whakataetae (he nui rawa hoki te tarakona pāpori kia whai wā mō te whakangungu). I waitohu mō Hawke's ✔️ - Lila, te Looney tawhiti. Kaha: Blackcurrant Powerade. Ngoikoretanga: ngāwari te hōhā - i te kaha o te hōhā, nā reira i tāruatia e ia tana tawhiti whakataetae "mō te tā anake". I hainatia mō Hawke's ✔️ - Chris, te Poutohu Whakataetae. Kaha: whakakā i tana Strava mō tētahi ngohe (āe, tango i ngā tatau ipu). Ngoikoretanga: kāore i taea te haere ki Hawke's Bay. - Liam, te Cantabrian Clopper. Kaha: e whakapono ana ko te oma he "wheako tangata tuatahi", nā reira he pai tonu te āhua. Ngoikoretanga: ka āwangawanga ina mutu i a ia tētahi oma me te kore whai taitara Strava pai. - Tohu, te Cameo Rongonui. Kaha: e rua noa iho te oma, engari he ngāwari noa iho te tukituki i ngā mea e rua. Ngoikoretanga: ātete i te uru ki te karakia. - Kate, te Jogger Waea. Kaha: oma i roto i te wera 30 waeine. Ngoikoretanga: tawhiti rawa ki te uru ki te ngahau.

ŪPOKO III - TE RĒHI

Tere whakamua ki te mutunga o Aotearoa - i te tiki ake a Fraser, Oliver, Sonia me au i a mātau bibs rēhi mai i te Napier i-Site, ka mōhio i runga i te wehi me te ngahau i ngā mea i whakaae mātou ki te mahi (hāunga a Oliver - kāore ia e pā ki ngā whakaaro).

He arokē te hōtoke i te studio, ā, he nui tonu ā mātou pereti. Ahakoa kua noho te oma hei wheako whakaaroaro (e ai ki tā David Shrigley: "oma oma oma oma oma atu i ō kawenga"), he pūtaiao pū hoki te whakangungu i uaua ki te whārite i ētahi atu wāhi o te ora. Hei tāpiri atu ki ngā āmaimai, i te kākari tonu māua ko Fraser ki ngā whara o nā noa nei, kāore i te mōhio mēnā ka mahi tahi o māua waewae.

Heoi anō, i whakatapua mātau ki te kite i tēnei mātātoa, ā, i whakahauhautia (ko te mea nui ake) e te kī taurangi o tētahi inu koreutu i tērā taha. Kī tonu ngā ringa i ngā tauira ārai rā, ka hoki mātau ki o mātau rūma hōtēra ki te whārōrō, ki te moe, ki te whāngai i te hurihanga whakamutunga o te utanga warowaihā i mua i te rā nui.

I te rā o te rēhi, ka mihia mātau e te rā me te hau pāpaku (he pai ki ngā Pōneke e whakamahia ana ki ngā wātū tere hau 70 km/h). I hiahia mātou kia waimarie, ka whakaae ki te tūtaki i te raina whakamutunga me te omaoma - e mau ana i ngā mantra pēnei i te "SEND IT!" a Sonia. I roto i te 2-4 haora ka huihuia anō mātou, ka whakaheke i ngā hiko me te whakawhiti hū oma mō ngā rēreti hāneanea ake. Ahakoa he rerekē to mātau wheako o te rēhi (ngā wā harikoa e whakaatu ana i te pūoro pai, te whakahoa me te āhua o te whakatutukitanga /versus/ uaua e whakaatu ana i ngā mamae mai i te pupuhi me te puku ki te ngenge whānui), ka whakawhiti katoa mātau i te raina whakamutunga me te tino whakahīhī.

I a mātau e noho ana i runga i tētahi pātītī pātītī i te whare wāina o Elephant Hill me ngā pouaka pizza wātea e rua hei hunga whakarongo, ka whakaae mātau ki a mātau wikitōria:

- I oti i a Sonia tētahi hāwhe omaoma 2x wiki noa iho i muri i tana oma 27 km mo te aroha. Ahakoa kāore a ia i kī, i whakanui hoki mātau i a ia e whakaoti ana i te mahinga 8 marama me te kore whara. - I te mutunga ka eke a Oliver ki tana whāinga o te hawhe-marathon i raro i te 1h30 - he hiahia i aukatia ai ia e te turi kōpikopiko i tana whakataetae whakamutunga. Kaore a ia i tino koa ki a ia anō, i te mātao, i whakamahia ki te katoa o te hākinakina, ā, tērā pea i whakamā i to mātau ngahau tamariki. - I kitea e Fraser kāore he rohe o tōna manawanui ki te mamae. E kīia ana ko te "pain cave aficionado" (āe, he masochist rānei), i oma a ia i tōna whara hope mo te mutunga 1h33 meneti. - I oma tōu pono i te 42.2kms katoa ahakoa te pona, i whakaoho i te whakatutukitanga me te taitara o te "oma/kaioma tika" ka hokona wawetia mō te kī taurangi o tētahi atu hākinakina.

Ki a au ko Sonia, he wā anō te mātātoa ki te kohi moni mō ētahi o ā māua aroha makau, e whakaranu ana i te pakihi me te ahuareka. Tirohia tētahi pou mō tēnei i konei.

I muri i te rēhi, ka whakangāwari mātou mō ētahi rā i Hawke's Bay, e hākinakina ana i ngā tirohanga hei tūruhi, ehara i te kaiomaoma (ahakoa i te kitenga i te taha moana o Napier ka tū tonu ngā makawe i muri i taku kakī). Ka hīkoi mātou i ngā whare wāina, i ngā hōpua wera, ā, i whai wāhi mātou ki te haere ki tētahi o ngā taunga takahi o tā mātou kiritaki, a Hastings, ki te hopu pikitia o tā mātou whakaingoa anō. Kātahi anō ka hoki mātou ki Pōneke, ka kōrerorero i ngā mea e penapena ana mō te wā heke mai me te ātete i te hiahia ki te waitohu mō tētahi atu takahanga.

ŪPOKO IV - HE AHA INĀIANEI?

E kore e kī, kei te ora tonu a RFC. He torutoru noa iho ngā mema o te tīma e mahi ana ki tētahi atu rēhi, ā, ko ētahi e whakaae ana ki te whakatā, ka hoki anō ki Strava ki te whakawhāiti i aua uaua taitara auaha. I tēnei rā, he hongere Slack tā mātou mō te kōrerorero whakahaere ngaio (pono!), i a mātou e whakauru ana ki te Run 72, i whakaritea e Lads without Labels - he takahanga i āwhina mātou ki te whakatairanga.

Kia mataara ki ētahi atu mahi kōwhai RFC kōwhai - ko wai e mōhio ana? A tērā tau ka taea pea e mātou te whakatūpato i te studio katoa kia hono...
