Epic Sunday Activation coming up 🌞
We're heading down to Shoe Clinic this Sunday morning, 8 til half 9, for our first activation run. Think of it as the warm up before the warm up. Easy pace, good company with ZeroTwenty2 SportsCo 🤝
Mark will be there with Bingo cards for everyone!
➡️ Tick off a line and you'll walk away with a WoolAid pack 🎁 (if you haven't tried these merino plasters yet, you're in for a surprise, they're made from wool grown right here in NZ and they actually break down in the soil).
➡️ Fill the whole card, verify it with Mark, and your name goes on the back of your Bingo Card to enter the draw for a Fractel Cap!
Everyone's welcome and we'd love to see you. Bring a friend, meet a stranger, and let's get the legs moving before the big day.
See you there! Who's coming?

COASTAL FIVE SUPPORT CREW TIP #2: BRINGING THE KIDS TO THE HALF?
Make East End Playground your friend. 🙌
It’s a great spot to cheer on your Coastal Half runner AND there’s something to keep the small humans entertained between sightings.
Because spectating with kids is roughly:
10 seconds: “THERE THEY ARE!!! GO MUM!!!” 📣
Followed by:
“When are they coming back?”
“When can we go?”
“I’m hungry.”
“Can I have another snack?”
Plan accordingly. 😂
