Poppa & Daddy run the Rotorua 50th marathon

Last year your Poppa turned 50, half way to 100, starting down the slippery slope.. Your father and him were talking about their bucket lists and doing a marathon is on Poppa's. Now it probably is important to know at this point that your Poppa doesn't run but does enjoy a good walk or stroll. So him talking about a marathon was a bit of "oh yeah believe it when I see it!"

6 months later and....

poppa has lost about 20kgs and now says a short run is 8km...crazy man! Well tick for the bucket list and he can now die happy - and leave us the car in his will! =)

This is your daddies 3rd half marathon and his bucket list is to complete the rotorua 100th marathon in another 50years. 


WE ARE SUPER PROUD OF WHAT YOUR POPPA AND DADDY DID TODAY! well done boys, you did great! 

We have had a great weekend staying in Rotorua. Your grandparents can't get enough of you, even when your being a brat and not staying asleep for your 2hour lunch nap. 
 Itwas your first time in a motel and you enjoyed yourself... The poor neighbours having you cry every 2 hours over night and mummy and daddy getting hardly any sleep. 

It had a lovely spa bathwhich we all relaxed in after the run. 
Back home and you have crashed out in your cot, fingers crossed for a good night. Your father has gone to rugby game- go the chiefs!!! He will be very sore in the morning.
