The Last Ever Old Folks' Run

aka The "eat the rich", support Chocolate Fish cafe, angry old folks' run

What to expect
We'll meet at the Chocolate Fish cafe in Shelley Bay and curse the eldritch Rulers of Miramar, Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh, for their short-sighted selfishness in wanting to close down the Chocolate Fish cafe. In fact, we can stand on the lawn of the cafe and shake our fists!

We'll visit the tomb of a past Leader of New Zealand, pondering our own mortality, and later mutter, "there but for the grace of God" as we run past a prison. We'll frolic with Tuis on trails and end on a lovely downhill run with a fairy forest, before well-deserved refreshments at the cafe.

Expected run time: Around 90 mins.

FAQs
What's an "Old Folks' Run"?
Those 40 and over qualify automatically as "old folk". This is a run for you.

Why "Last Ever"?
We're old. Who knows if we'll be around for the next one!

Old Folk run slow, right?
Oh, fuck yes! It will be a pace slow enough that you'll marvel you can still call it running. On the other hand, you're old enough that you marvel you still can run. In your secret heart of hearts, you'll thank me for the slow pace.

An 8am start?
Nope! I'm feeling generous. 8:30am for this one.

I'm young, but for some unfathomable reason, still want to come. Can I?
Yes you may. There's just a couple of rules:
- Go slow
- Be respectful of your elders

Respectful?
Correct: "Yes Daddy." "Yes Mummy."
Incorrect: "Ok, Boomer." "Sure, Karen."
