The Auntsfield 4 Legged Race – coming soon! Sat 24.3.12
The Auntsfield 4 Legged Race is held annually as a fundraiser for Great Potentials Foundation and is a unique multi-sport event, held on private land in picturesque Clevedon. Individuals from teams of four complete one leg each; either a kayak, run, horse ride or mountain bike. The race takes around six hours for each team to complete.
Family and friends cheer on every transition at the Auntsfield 4 Legged Race Base Camp, and there is a bbq and children’s entertainment throughout the duration of the event at base camp.
In 2012 the event will be held on Saturday, 24thMarch 2012.
If you’re interested in contributing to the event (either as a competitor or sponsor) and for more information, visit the Auntsfield 4 Legged Race website: www.the4leggedrace.co.nz
