Hi all,

Who is participating this this event? What training if any are you doing? Are you are walker, runner, or somewhere in between?

    I'm signed up! I walked my first one last year in a time just shy of 90 minutes, but I've been doing a C25K-esque plan since the new years, and I'm aiming for a sub 70-minute time this year.

    I jog/walk 6k's about 4 times a week.

    My husband and I are doing this as well. Our first event of this type. We work out at the gym 4 days a week and walk 6K twice a week now. We're walking it rather than running it. Good luck! :)

    I'll be doing it. Have done it several years ago, got 65 min.

    Am going to try out an 8km run today. Will likely be a wee bit of walking involved. Hoping to get 50-55 min this year, depends how close I can get to the front!

    Auckland Uni is being a bit slow this year, and we wont get to pick up our tshirts until Friday!

    But I swear I had another week to train...

    Results were up yesterday . . .

    I walked the whole way and did it in 90mins 21secs :)

    Doing Coatesville this Sunday . . . will be bliss with only 1600 in the 8km instead of 70,000!!!! lol
