Workout Wednesday
>30km

First session of the week and it felt terrible.

Undercarbed today thanks to some stomach issues, so only managed around 100g of carbs before heading into this one. Safe to say, not the smartest move. (Noodle incoming)

Also in a bit of a dilemma with race day shoes. I’ve got 3 options and I’m still not sure which way I’m leaning. A few things to weigh up before making that call.

Got the session done, linked up with my homie @haydenrunstrail and jumped in with the Dawgs for the first time. Felt good to move with some pace and actually really enjoyed it. Might have to go back, we’ll see.

Anyway, time to get some food in and hope the stomach plays ball.

TAUPO ULTRA 100K - OCTOBER 17 , 2026
RACE RECAP 🥈

THE FUELING STRATEGY
Was in bed at 8pm for a 3.30am wakeup. Had a bagel with banana & honey and a coffee, and hit the road by 4am for the start line. For the drive I had a Monster energy drink and banana.
Started off with six gels [PURE COLA race gels], one I consumed 20 mins before the race, and then one every 30 mins during the race. Also had @skratchlabs carb/electo mix in my flasks, so was hitting about 100-110g of carbs per hour.
START 2 HINGARAE [29K]
We started at 5.35am , welcomed on the trail with a hikoi. I made sure to hang in the top 5 from the start so I wasn't caught behind people on the single trail. For the first 10k I was in a three-man train [4th place], allowing the man in front to set the pace. By 10k this man started to slow down and I made my move to jump into 3rd. From here, I caught second place after the first aid station, and hung with him until 17k, when he unfortunately rolled his ankle. I managed to catch the leader of the 100k relay on the final climb into Hingarae, then had a quick interchange.
HINGARAE 2 AIRSTRIP [50K]
From here I was feeling very strong and was under course record pace, little did I know race leader Gary Carleton was in the process of smashing that record. We were in farmland for the next 10ish k , and took a rogue 💩 off the track. It seems the 'Code Brown' nickname may have to stick. From here I entered a long road section, where I was dropping 4:10 to 4:30 steady k's, before entering the Airstrip to rapturous applause led by @fredenrun / @union.athletics buddies. Again had a very quick interchange, and passed the 50k mark just a few seconds over 4 hrs.
AIRSTRIP 2 KINLOCH [76K]
We were onto the beautiful undulating tracks of the 50k course, and I was able to hold pace. Fueling had gone well all day and I was still feeling strong. Once I got to Kinloch township and hit the suburb pavements, I was exposed to the afternoon heat and unforgiving concrete. 5k out from the final major aid station, I was starting to hit the pain cave. Sat down for 2 mins, downed a coke, and had Blaine pacing for the final stretch.
KINLOCH 2 FINISH [100K]
Survived , Finished Strong ⚡️

TAUPO 100K ULTRA 🥈 8:31:04
MAJOR 6/6

Overcome with euphoria and relief on this one.

The culmination of an absolute windfall of a year.

Anyone that knows me well, probably knew I had it in me, but I sure had to break some bad habits.

I did my first Ultra here in 2024, and it has very much been a redemption story for me.

Thanks to @thebloggrapher for being the absolute master crewman and pacer.

Thanks for @fredenrun buddies for cheering me on through the midway point @avanijagavkar @roseywilkinson @_callum.massey_ .

Thanks to my parents for coming down to support. And all those who sent out messages of encouragement and/or congratulations.

Thanks to my advisory board @david.2me @leonardterry @scott_bougen @pfitzy_92 for the pearls of wisdom.

Thanks to the team @union.athletics for my only speedwork for the week.

Race debrief will be forthcoming in a few days.

another 10 hour training week in the books🫡
3 weeks out akl mara, 9 weeks hyrox melbs

heavy training, heavy fuelling, and doing what I genuinely love.

i think burnout is a lot harder to fall into when you’re doing something you love, fuelling enough to support the work, and actually enjoying the process rather than just chasing an outcome.

i’d never put this much time into it if i wasn’t enjoying it. life’s too short not to make time for the things that make you happy

for the love of the game ❤️

5KM: 17:45 (3:33min/km), Happy with that.

The strategy was the same as always - send it and try to hold on for dear life (we only positive splits around here).

Swipe to slide 2 for some majestic form 4km in and slide 4 for the workouts done (and missed) over the last 10 weeks #gatekeeping

The @asicsnz Megablast is the shoe of all shoes. Coming in as the perfect shoe for those marathon effort workouts but being able to respond well through the whole spectrum of run workouts as well.

Don’t get me wrong, the magic speeds may be a bit better for the track, the superblasts a bit better for the longer ones, the nova 6s a bit better for the very easy, but the mega is almost as good and can do it all.

If you can’t afford to buy 5 different pairs of shoes. Here’s the 1 I would go.

Personally I like to go 1 size up aswell, the toe box seemed to be a bit on the narrow side for my hobbit foot.
