The Te Araroa trail

From Afternoons, 2:06 pm on 18 December 2012

Richard Bowles is an adventurer and running machine - he's just run the length of New Zealand in 62 days and he didn't take State Highway One either. He went the hard way - over mountain ranges, through volcanic terrain, and on some of our more demanding trials. In the process he went through 10 pairs of running shoes. He's is the first person to run the Te Araroa Trail which runs from Cape Reinga to Bluff.
