Kia Ora Whānau. There is trail running and then there is getting after it in the wild places. The places where no matter what, your pack will be kinda heavy, you will have a beacon with you and there will be parts of that place which could be considered “mildly terrifying” (Wright, 2021). This is where Elly Arnst thrives. From a road running background, Elly then turned to tramping in the ranges around Whanganui, seeing how far she could push herself in an allotted time limit. A fortuitous meeting with Katie Wright led to many huge adventures, including two of the three SK completions, being the first people to send the Ruahine ranges, and pacing Katie to her 2021 Tarawera victory. Not content with that, Elly just smashed the course record at Old Forest Hanmer 100. This woman has chops. As if this isn’t enough Elly also volunteers for Lansar. This is a great conversation about the joy of moving in the big country and how much fun it can be...if you take a little care.  Enjoy.

Episode 144 - Elly Arnst

In this episode I catch up with Elly Arnst and discuss her debut ultra race (and win!) at the 2021 Old Forest Hanmer 100. Elly is an experienced tramper, runner, and is a bit of an adventure legend! Despite this being her first ultra race, she is no stranger to taking on long distances over challenging terrain. At the end of 2020 she took on the epic Ruahine Traverse in 39 hours without sleep, alongside good friend and Hanmer 100 crew-mate Katie Wright.We chat about the race, problem-solving on the go, pushing your limits, Revenant 2022, and what it means to be part of the crew!
