Pūrongo Whakahaere o te Bay o Hawke

ŪPOKO I - TE TĪMATANGA

Kaore he mea pēnei i te noho i mua i te tia pia, a, ka whakatau kia tino tika. Pikitia i tēnei: I te 22 o Hakihe 2022, he pub Welsh kore i Pōneke me tētahi kirimana: "me whakahaere tātou i te Bay Half-Marathon o te Hawke".

I taua wā he rerekē to mātau wheako whakahaere, mai i "he aha tōu tikanga 'he aha tōku tere'?" ki "He nui taku raupapa ā-hiko i ia rua wiki". Ahakoa rā, i whakaae mātau ki te haere ki Napier, a, ka hoatu i tēnei mea whakahaere kia haere. Mai i nga pungarehu o tētahi pō i whānau mai i te RFC (Running Footers Club) - he rōpū Rautaki o te kaiomaoma wannabe me ō rātou ake hongere Strava me Slack.

ŪPOKO II - 1 TE WHAKATAETAE TAKAWARE ME TE 8 MARAMA O TE WHAKANGUNGU

Kaore ahau e mau i a koe ki nga taipitopito ātaahua mai i a mātau whakangungu marama. Heoi anō, anei tētahi whakataki ki te tīma RFC me te mātātoa i roto i ētahi tau ruarua.

E whakamōhio ana i te tīma RFC:- Oliver, te Mīhini. Strength: ko te ōritetanga me te sass Strava. Ko te ngoikore: e whakaaro ana ko te tinana, he rite tonu ki te whenua papatahi, ehara i te mea tūturu. I hainatia mō te ✔️ Kāhu - Fraser, te Tere Demon. Strength: tere. Weakness: e kore e pai ki te whakapono ki nga mea whakamīharo o te whakangā, ki ngā mahere whakangungu, ki ngā jogs pōturi rānei. I hainatia mo Hawke ✔️ - ko Hōonia, ko koroātiana Coyote. Strength: kaore i whakawhāititia mo te whakataetae. Weakness: kāore i te whakawhāiti i te whakataetae (he nui rawa te wā o te tarakona pāpori kia whai wā mo te whakangungu). I hainatia mo te Kāhu ✔️ - Lila, te Looney tawhiti. Strength: Blackcurrant Powerade. Ngoikore: he ngāwari noa iho te poka - nā reira i tino hauā, i tāruatia e ia tōna iwi e tawhiti ana "mō te tā noa iho". I hainatia mo Hawke ✔️ - ko Pirihi, ko te Poutohu Whakataetae. Strength: huri ana i tana Strava mō ētahi ngohe (āe, tangohia nga tatau o nga ipu). Weakness: kāore i taea te haere ki te Bay o Hawke.- Liam, te Clopper Cantabrian. Strength: ko te whakapono ko te whakahaere he " wheako tangata tino nui", nā reira he mātao tonu te āhua. Weakness: ka whakaiti i a ia e whakaoti ana i tētahi oma me te kore whai taitara Strava pai.- Mark, te Cameo Celebrity. Strength: e rua anake te oma, engari i tino pakaru rāua tahi. Weakness: i ātete ki te hono ki te karihi.- Kate, te Jogger Waea-mai. Strength: e haere ana i roto i te 30 waeine wera. Weakness: he tawhiti rawa ki te hono atu ki runga i te ngahau.

ŪPOKO III - TE RĒHI

Tere whakamua ki te mutunga o Awatea - Fraser, Oliver, Sonia me ahau i te piki ake i o mātau iwi i te Napier i-Site, e mōhio ana ki te pānui me te ngahau i ngā mea i whakaaetia e mātau ki te mahi (hāunga a Oliver - kāore a ia i te pā ki ngā whakaaro). 

I te arokē te hōtoke i te whare mahi, a, he nui ta mātau katoa i runga i a mātau pereti. Ahakoa kua noho te oma hei wheako meditative (i te tānga a Rawiri Shrigley: "whakahaere ana i te rere atu i ō kawenga"), he pūtaiao pū hoki te whakangungu i uaua ki te whakataurite i te taha o ētahi atu wāhi ora. Hei tāpiri atu ki nga kaiata, i te kākari tonu māua ko Fraser ki nga mate o nā noa nei, e mōhio ana mēnā ka pā mai o mātau waewae.

Heoi anō, i whakatapua mātau ki te kite i tēnei mahinga, i whakahauhautia hoki (ko te mea nui ake) na te kupu taurangi o te inu koreutu i tērā taha. Kī tonu ngā ringa i ngā tauira mata koreutu, ka hoki mātau ki o mātau rūma hōtēra ki te whārōrō, ki te moe me te whāngai i te hurihanga whakamutunga o te utanga o te motokā i mua i te rā nui.

I te rā o te rēhi, ka mihia mātau e te rā me te hau iti (he pai ki ngā Pōneke i whakamahia ki te 70 km/h ngā wātū tere gust). E hiahia ana mātau kia waimarie tētahi, ka whakaae mātau ki te tūtaki i te raina whakamutunga, a, ka pōharu - he hunga patu i runga i ngā mahi pēnei i te "SEND IT!". I roto i te 2-4 hāora i tāruatia ai mātau, e whakararo ana i ngā hiko me te whakawhiti hū rere mō ngā rēreti pai ake. Ahakoa he rerekē to mātau wheako o te rēhi (ngā wā pouri e whakaatu ana i ngā pūoro pai, me te whakarite hoa me te āhua o te whakatutukitanga /versus/ ngā wā uaua e whakaatu ana i ngā mamae mai i ngā horo me ngā puku puku ki te rongoā ahuwhānui), ka whakawhiti katoa mātau i te rārangi whakamutunga e tino whakakake ana.

E noho ana i runga i tētahi āpure pātītī i te wāina o te Maunga arewhana me ngā pouaka pizza wātea e rua hei hunga whakaminenga, me whakamihi tātau ki a tātau toa:

- I oti i a Sonia te hāwhe wiki anake i muri i te whakahaere i te 27 km mo te aroha. Ahakoa kāore a ia i kī, i te hākari hoki mātau i tana whakamutunga i te mahinga 8 marama, kaore he whara.- kātahi anō ka patua e Oliver tana whāinga mo te hāwhemara i raro i te 1h30 - he hiahia kia kore ai ia e whiwhi i tōna rēhi whakamutunga. Kaore a ia i tino hari ki a ia anō, he mātao rawa, i whakamahia ki te henanigan katoa, ā, tērā pea ka whakamā i te ngahau o ta māua tamaiti. - I kitea e Fraser kaore tōna manahau ki te mamae e mōhio ki nga rohe. I āta kōrerotia e Colloquially ko te "pain ana aficionado" (āe rānei, he masochist), ka oma a ia i roto i tōna mate pūkohu mo te mutunga 1h33 meneti. - I tino whakahaere tō i te 42.2km katoa ahakoa he takahuri turi, i te mahi me te taitara o te "kaioma/kaioma tika" e hokona tonutia ana mo te kī taurangi o tētahi atu tākaro.

Ki a Hōonia, ki a au anō hoki, he wā anō te mātātoa ki te kohi moni mo ētahi o a mātau aroha makau, e whakangahau ana i nga umanga i runga i te pai. Tirohia he pōhi mo tēnei i konei.

I muri iho i te rēhi, ka māhorahora mātau mo ētahi rā i te Poka o Hawke, e hākinakina ana i ngā tirohanga hei tūruhi, kaua ko te kaiomaoma (ahakoa i te kitenga i te wai o Napier, ka mahia tonutia nga makawe i muri o taku kakī e tū ake ana). I taka mātau i nga wāina, i nga hōpua wera, a, ka whai wāhi tonu mātau ki te toro i tētahi o nga taunga stomping o to mātau kiritaki, o Hastings, ki te mau i ētahi pikitia o to mātau whakaingoa anō. Kātahi anō ka hoki whakamuri mātau ki Pōneke, e kōrerorero ana i nga mea e penapenatia ana mō te wā heke, me te ātete i te tohe kia waitohu mō tētahi atu takahanga.

ŪPOKO IV - HE AHA INĀIANEI?

E kore e kī, e noho ana a RFC. Kei te mahi kē ētahi mema o te tīma ki tētahi atu rēhi, ā, e whakaae ana ētahi ki te whati, ka hoki whakamuri anake ki Strava ki te whakawhāiti i aua uaua taitara auaha. I tēnei rā, he hongere Slack tā mātou mō te kōrerorero whakahaere ngaio (i te nuinga o te wā!), i a mātou e whakauru ana ki te Whakahaere 72, i whakaritea e Lads me te kore Tapanga - he takahanga e āwhina ana mātou ki te whakatoko. 

Me titiro atu anō mō ētahi atu henanigan kōwhai kōwhai - ko wai e mōhio ana? A tērā tau ka taea e tātau te whakatūpato i te papamahi katoa kia hono...
