Description

A gruelling all terrain ultra race where you dont find out the exact course until just hours before you launch yourself in the literal wilderness is back after a two year hiatus and a falling out with DOC. This time a new charitable trust is running the infamous Godzone event. Teams of four, with minimal gear, trek, mountain bike, kayak, canoe and packraft up to 650 kilometres, with a maximum of eight days to finish. Former All Black Captain Richie McCaw, is part of the group responsible for ressurecting the race, and he spoke to Lisa Owen.
