Congratulations to our Livestock Solutions Ltd Members Choice winners - Blair & Bex Green @theruralmumma @fit.farm.family.nz

This award is about recognising the person or people who makes the club what it is — as voted by the members themselves.
It celebrates someone who consistently shows up, supports others, and contributes to the club in a way that might not always be loud or visible, but is deeply felt. Whether it’s encouraging others at events, helping behind the scenes, bringing great energy, or simply being someone, people enjoy being around, this person embodies the spirit of our club.
The Members’ Choice Award isn’t about results or podiums — it’s about character, connection, and contribution. It reflects who our members value most and who they believe represents the heart of Hurunui Multisport Club.

Thank you to Livestock Solutions Ltd for sponsoring this trophy. by @hurunui_multisport

Congratulations to our Amuri Lions Club Youth Award winner - @jakeabbott135

The Youth Award recognises a young athlete who has shown outstanding commitment to multisport.
This isn’t just about results — it’s about attitude, improvement, willingness to learn, and being a great club member. This young person has embraced the challenge of multisport, encouraged others, and shown real promise for the future. There may even be evidence of this young member dragging our club’s cyclist of the year at a certain multisport event. …so it’s safe to say the future of this club is in very good — and very fast — hands.

Congratulations to our Leo Dunne Overall Kayaker of the Year - @max_mccone

The Overall Kayaker of the Year recognises a paddler who has shown excellence right across the season — through strong performance on the water, growing skill and technique, consistent participation, and genuine support of others.
This is someone who brings quiet confidence to every paddle, is an absolute pleasure to be alongside on the water and backs their ambition with real dedication to training. Their strength and consistency speak for themselves, and with the attitude they bring, they’ve got an incredibly bright and promising future ahead.
This paddler has demonstrated strength, consistency, and a real passion for kayaking, even with the added pressure of the in-house competition.

Thank you to Leo Dunne - Wendy & Josh for all you do for our club! by @hurunui_multisport

Congratulations to our Abbott Rural Ag Most Improved Kayaker - Simon Francis

This award recognises the kayaker who has made the biggest leap forward in kayaking this season.

Improvement in kayaking takes time — and this paddler has put in the effort.

Congratulations to our @scottybrowns Overall Cyclist of the Year - @williamflapper

The Overall Cyclist of the Year celebrates the rider who has made their mark on the entire season — not just on the results sheet, but in the way they’ve raced, improved, and influenced those around them. It recognises someone who brings consistency and grit, pushes the pace, and keeps the competition honest.
It’s as much about presence as performance — the rider who adds something to every race, fuels the banter, and raises the standard simply by rolling up to the start line.
This rider didn’t just perform out on course — they became a key part of the Tuesday night banter. Week after week, they were the name on everyone’s lips, usually followed by, “Surely it’s time they go up a grade?”
But behind all of that was genuine progress. Big efforts, smart racing, and noticeable improvement across the season made them not just a competitor, but someone who lifted the level of racing for everyone around them.
This cyclist made things just competitive enough to keep everyone slightly annoyed — in the best possible way. They brought intensity, consistency, and just enough controversy to keep things interesting — exactly what good club racing is all about.

Congratulations to our @waihuiagriculture Most Improved Cyclist - @nathan.absalom

The Most Improved Cyclist recognises someone who has shown significant development over the season.
This isn’t necessarily about finishing first — it’s about progress. We looked at improvements in times, confidence in racing, consistency, and overall growth.
This person had a bold look – wearing shorts over lycra in a sea of lycra. Part cyclist, part farmer, part “I’m not fully committing to this cycling thing just yet.” And you could always spot them in the bunch — not because of their speed… but because of the unmistakable flutter of extra material in the breeze.
But here’s the thing — we’ve watched the evolution. Their confidence has grown. The shorts slowly disappeared. The lycra stood proudly on its own. And with it came faster times, stronger riding… and possibly a few shocked spectators who didn’t realise what had been hidden all along. This rider has clearly put in the work — turning up to races, training consistently, and pushing themselves outside their comfort zone.

Congratulations to Nick Abbott on receiving the Green Family Club Legend Award.

This award recognises someone who goes above and beyond for the club — not just through their own participation, but through the way they lift others around them. It celebrates generosity, commitment, and the quiet behind-the-scenes contributions that help make our club stronger.
This year’s recipient truly embodies that spirit. He has generously made his own gear available for club use, helping remove barriers so others can get involved and give things a go. On top of that, he’s been incredibly encouraging of fellow athletes and has quietly organised shuttles behind the scenes. His willingness to share both his time and equipment has made a real difference to the supportive environment we value so much.

To our Coast to Coast whānau,

Whether this is your very first Coast to Coast or you’ve been here before, you’re all standing on the same start line with the same mix of nerves, excitement, and respect for what lies ahead.

To our first-timers: trust your preparation and take it one section at a time. Just focus on the next step, the next paddle, the next pedal. Go out and smash it!

To those who have done Coast before and are lining up again: thank you for coming back. You know what the day demands, and your experience, grit, and quiet encouragement inspires others!

You’ve all done the hard work, now go show yourself what you’re capable of. When it gets hard, dig in and back yourself. You all absolutely belong on that start line.

Thank you to all of you for being part of the Hurunui Multisport Club and for trusting the club, the coaches, and each other to help prepare you for this challenge.

No matter your goal — a podium, a personal best, or simply making it to the finish — be proud of the work you’ve put in to get here. Look after each other, respect the conditions, and don’t forget to take a moment to soak it all in. Not everyone gets to do something this special.
(A few tears on the finish line are expected 😉)

Race hard, race smart, and most of all, enjoy the journey across our incredible backyard.

Good luck — we’re all behind you.

Ps, Don’t forget your jacket 😉

Bex — Hurunui Multisport Club President 🫶
