Tuesday 26 September – Nutters Cross Island Run  

The Nutters Cross Island Run is approximately 8.5 km that starts at 3pm from Vaimaanga between the popular Wigmores Super Store and Vaima Restaurant and heads over ridges across rugged valleys and riverbeds down to the Avatiu Coastline. The remarks from this run have been branded the most difficult in the country. It is not recommended for the fainthearted. Registration and check in for race will be at the Avatiu finish line of the race. There will be considerations for a 2pm start for walkers. Race entry is a gold coin donation. The record still stands unbeaten at 45 minutes and 28 seconds set back in 1992, and promises to be an exciting challenge. If you think you can beat it, give it a go!
