Runners High
This is for those who love to run. All around the world runner types will kick off at exactly the same time to raise funds for people who can't run - that means 10pm local time for New Zealand runners. Trail starts at Hampton Downs, heads east towards the Firth of Thames and on to State Highway 25 and up to Miranda, Hunua Ranges and Kawakawa Bay. It's endurance stuff - the race continues until there is only one female and one male athlete in the world left running, to be crowned Wings for Life World Run Champion. Dan Carter will be giving it a crack. Better book Monday's leave now, then.
Details: Sunday, starts at 9.30am. Hampton Downs Raceway. Website.
Creative High
In the office, we've become very competitive about growing orchids. So we'll be joining the nanas and cool florists and rabid fanatics who make up our orchid community, at the sweetest fair in Auckland this weekend - the annual Orchid Society show. We'll be picking the experts' brains, buying fabulous new breeds and generally ready to show off when the working week returns.
Details: Sunday, 11am to 4pm, Mt Albert War Memorial Hall, 773 New North Road. Website.
