Morning before flight out of NZ, we were close, so I reran the NZ Sprint Champs at the Auckland Botanical gardens. Thought I wasn't hammering quite as hard as the race, but time was fair (~1 minute better.)

Running warm up/down 10:40 [2] 1.45 km (7:21 / km)
ahr:114 shoes: O-VJ-Grey-Spikes

Running 42:24 [3] 7.33 km (5:47 / km) +50m 5:36 / km
ahr:138 max:155 shoes: O-VJ-Grey-Spikes

Upolu, Samoa, Aggies Grey restort. ~85-90 deg, sunny, humid. Moderate migraine in the evening...

Note this was my 2nd run on 4/18, but it was the next day... I crossed the dateline and moved 1 hour (-23...) So either my 42 seconds on a 747 on 4/3 counts, or my unwound-dates (ignore the dateline) run-every-day counts, and I've still run every day in '07...

Karangahake Gorge Ran through some trails, gold mining tracks and mining tunnels with a really weak flashlight (had to walk ~5 minutes of the "run"). Pretty cool tunnel network at one point in a mountain on the side of a cliff-walled gorge with "windows" overlooking the gorge, and a small network of publically accessible trails inside the mountain.
