Cancelled: Matakana Dash 2022
All the weather predictions show Tāwhirimātea will be increasing his might on Saturday, and with our primary concern being that of safety, we regret to say our Matakana Dash is cancelled. Always a difficult decision, especially with so much fantastic preparation mahi that has been put into an event. However, on the flip side, we are now ahead of the game in our preparation for the Ōmokoroa Dash in February! All entries will be reimbursed. If you have made an entry payment, please email [email protected] with your bank account details, and this will be arranged. Mauri ora
