GODZone, presented by 100% PURE Racing, is a multi-day, non-stop, expedition-style adventure race held each year in New Zealand.
The course route traverses a distance of approximately 500 to 550km. Teams are expected to navigate, trek, mountain bike, kayak and canoe over a vast array of different landscapes. Other disciplines may be included such as abseil, rappel and ropes sections which will test the mental and physical skills of participants.
The GODZone route is always highly demanding both technically and physically, testing teams in many different ways and those taking part in the event should not underestimate the importance of being well prepared. GODZone in New Zealand represents the pinnacle of adventure racing challenges and is now the largest expedition event of its kind in the world.
The One NZ GODZONE Chapter 12 finish line is buzzing at Shelly Beach in Picton today, with leading Pure Team 7 Rab winning the race in a finish time of 6 days, 2 hours and 15 minutes.
