Southern Traverse on sabbatical |
| There will be no expedition style Southern Traverse in 2009, however we are still looking at staging a 24/8hrs version down in Queenstown in the Spring. Watch out for more news! |

FATHERLY SUPPORT |
| It’s not often a father has to choose between two daughters but Tom Clark had to make the call on which support crew to join – with daughter Sonya racing in the Powered by Velvet team and Sarah competing in the Icebreaker R & R Sport team. How did he decide? Simple – Sonya asked first!”

FAMILIAR FACES |
| A Southern Traverse wouldn’t be the same without Jenny Day and Bryan Otty – the event’s longest serving volunteer officials. They’ve been parked up in their camper van at several transition areas and the coffee’s always brewing – a welcome oasis for anyone in need- particularly after a cold paddle!

WAYNE’S WORLD |
| Long time Southern Traverse management member Wayne Allen almost opted to spend the night in the hills on Friday after struggling to find a route out in the fog from his checkpoint on the mountain trek in the Maukuratawhai. He eventually emerged from the gloom –“after taking three and a half hours to get out compared to two hours going in!”

BRING HOME THE BACON |
| The Icebreaker R & R Sports team has two new support crew who have been spoiling them rotten! The team arrived in to the transition area from the Mt Garfield trek to the smell of frying bacon! Guess who is likely to be invited to be on the permanent support team!

Hello everyone,
A big long week end is just around the corner, and it might as well be a sunny and warm one for us to go out there and have some fun!
We are seeing more and more people getting on their bikes, kayaks and putting on their running shoes, and with longer days and longer daylight hours, we should all make the most of it. And plant our garden, spend some time with the kids and partners/wife/husbands... and get away from the constant political buzzing in the background!
