Taupo Lakeside

January 14, 2025 (Afternoon)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
In the morning, we explored around Taupo going up to Huka Falls, the Rapids, Beehive, which was real cool and real touristy. Lots of people out checking the sights. Sun really came out and I felt like I was getting toasty. A lake dip sounded really nice actually. Needed to fit a run in first. We had walked down the path south a few times but I put my shoes on and went down again. It was warm, probably hottest part of the day. Lots of people were boating or out in the water just a fun summer day feel. I got down about 15 mins, which came right to 2 miles. There was a huge stretch of road that just kept going and I realized how long the path actually was. Would have loved to add on but I was hurting from the lack of mileage. Turned around, tried to hold the pace, but it was tough. Good to use my shoes once again.

Essentials: Stretch

Stretched a little bit but more so regrouped and got into the water. Took a long time because it was a lot colder than I expected. I had to go in two separate trips but once I dunked, it was worth it. Walked it back to find Katy and Gordon had arrived. Onto the next adventure.
