A welcome-home party is planned today for Taranaki ultramarathon runner Lisa Tamati after her 2200km run from Bluff to Cape Reinga.
Tamati will complete the 45-day journey by running from New Plymouth airport to the city centre on the last leg of her run to raise funds for Cure Kids and CanTeen.

Warbirds over Wanaka
Hundreds of aviation enthusiasts turned out to see some impressive aircraft in action yesterday at a preview of the Warbirds over Wanaka show this weekend. The popular event had been grounded for the past six years, partly because of Covid pandemic restrictions. This Easter weekend it returns, with a sellout crowd of more than 60,000 people set to attend today and tomorrow. Photos / George Heard
