Beach 2 Basin means a good run for masses

More than 2360 people laced up their runners and set off from Onerahi yesterday morning for the Beach 2 Basin Walk/Run event. Finishing at the Town Basin, the Chilltech Beach 2 Basin contestants competed in the 6.7km or the 10km tracks, with runners, walkers and pram walkers all taking part. Northern Advocate photographer Tania Whyte got quite a workout keeping up with the contestants.
