Kapiti Women's Triathlon and Duathlon swim sessions before Christmas

Cat from Paraparaumu

Summer is just around the corner and Kapiti Women’s Tri is only a few months away! We’re kick-starting our Summer training with some pool swim sessions starting from next Sunday 28 November 10 am - 11 am (14 Nov) @Coastlands Aquatic Centre.

Our Sunday swim sessions are aimed at women who haven't been in the pool for a while or who need to build back confidence, as well those more confident swimmers which we’re likely to split into two groups.

Where: @Coastlands Aquatic Centre || Normal entry fee || Look for the pink t-shirt + meet at the far side of the pool (near the stands).

Time/Day: Sunday mornings 10:00am – 11:00am

Dates:
Sunday 28 November
Sunday 5 December
Sunday 12 December
Sunday 19 December

Driven On The Akatarawa Rd Lately?

Marie from Waikanae

If so, its good to know you are still alive and reading this.

We have a function to go to over Christmas up that way and having heard a few hairy stories about the road, I went up there on Thursday to check it out. The road's ok, narrow and winding, but not much worse than a Wellington hill suburb. What was pretty scary was the behavior of other drivers. Three vehicles heading the other way at speed would have crashed into me if I hadn't been pulled off the road. I had pulled in to check the address when a truck came flying past, taking up all of the narrow road at speed. There is no way the driver would have been able to stop had they come around the corner immediately in front of me. The other two drivers came hurtling past as I had turned in to turn around and come back down the hill. They were also driving at speed and taking up most of the road. Coming back down I passed another car coming up and estimate that the safe speed to pass another car was about 30-35 kms.p.h. So, now we're thinking, do we go to the function or not.? Feels a bit like we're taking our life in our hands going up there. Drivers appear to be overconfident, and they are courting serious injury.
