Wellington Summer Afterwork Rogaine Series Results
- Wellington Orienteering Association
- After a bad weather start the weather improved for a while then got steadily windier. The 52 competitors reported a cryptic course with a couple of misplaced controls. Many competitors completed the diving pool control (adjacent to the start at Keith Spry Swimming Pool) but suggested that with fine weather it could have been an excellent control.

Akatarawa Attack
- Wellington Orienteering Association
- 80 mountainbikers attacked the Akatarawas on Saturday, armed only with a map. And 78 emerged more or less unscathed, close to the 4 or 8 hours each team had chosen for their battle with the rugged bush area between Upper Hutt and Kapiti. The final team of 2 pulled into the base at the end of Bulls Run Road three and a half hours late - battered but unbowed.

Run No. 1584: Hine Road carpark, Wainuiomata
- Wellington Hash House Harriers
- The sun shone bright and clear in the late afternoon as the hardy and intrepid WHHH'ers headed out to Wainui for the second run of 2006. After the customary passport check at the top of Wainui hill and the fortunately gentle rubber glove investigations from customs meant that most arrived in time and well refreshed.
