Events

I’m working on my mental toughness, but I generally get too nervous to do many events, plus unless I consider myself competitive (particularly with regard to running), I don’t tend to put myself forward.  I can’t quite find my way around Athlinks sufficiently to log all my results in a central place, so I’ve added them in here…

  • Christchurch Half Marathon – 2005 (1.56 hours)  I’m still really embarrassed about that one even though it was my first ever event, and I had just three months running under my belt.  As a colleague said to me afterwards “Did you think you’d do it that slowly?”!!
  • South Island Masters Games Cycling Road Race – 2005 (Silver Medal)
  • Bishopdale Law Duathlon – 2005 (1st place Mixed Team with Graham)
  • Summer Duathlon – 2005 (3rd place Mixed Team with Graham)
  • Contours Women’s Duathlon Series – 2005 (3rd place for series)
  • Christmas Cracker Duathlon – 2005 (1st place, Mixed Team with Graham)
  • Christmas Twilight Rogaine – 2005 (almost last – must have been Graham’s fault!)
  • Teva Big Day at the Office Race (team) – 2006 (2nd place Women’s Team with Emma Beckley)
  • AMP Multisport Race – 2006 (9th Mixed Team out of 27 with Jill and Charlotte Hiatt, and Graham)
  • Brass Monkey Kayak Series – 2006 (1st place, Open Women, C Category)
  • Meridian Energy Kayak Challenge – 2006 (can’t recall/find the result)
  • Clutha Classic Kayak Race – 2007 (3rd place, Open Women)
  • Speights Coast to Coast (two day team) – 2007 (4th place, Open Women with Emma Beckley)
  • Brass Monkey Kayak Series – 2007 (1st place, Open Women, C Category)
  • Willows to Brooklands Kayak Race – 2007 (3rd place, C Category)
  • Meridian Energy Kayak Challenge – 2007 (finished but recorded as DNF due to detouring the lake)
  • Waimak Classic Kayak Race – 2007 (15th place, Open Women Category)
  • Speights Coast to Coast (two day individual) – 2008 (29th place, Open Women out of 57)
  • Spring Challenge – 2008 (with Megan Berrill and Ange Dow) (13.54 hours, 14th out of 29 in Open category)
  • South Island Half Ironman – 2008 (5.44 hours, 7th in age group, 18th woman out of 41)
  • Challenge Wanaka – 2009 (iron distance race – 3.8km swim, 180km cycle, 42.2km run) – 13.46 hours

I’ll keep adding to the list as the events come and go.
