Wicked Rogaines celebrates a wicked 10 years

As the new year begins, Wicked Rogaines is reflecting on 2018, which was the biggest year yet for participants, and looking forward to an event-filled 2019, where the Christchurch-based navigation event company celebrates its 10th anniversary.
 
Nora Audra, who runs Wicked Rogaines with her husband Ian Edmond, says: “It was a huge year for us with more than 3800 people coming along to our rogaine events. In 2019, we are celebrating our 10-year anniversary and have some great rogaines planned and look forward to seeing some of the almost 16,000 participants we have had – over the past decade – out there!”

“Right through 2018 we had a whole lot of highlights. At our after work event at the Christchurch Adventure Park, we had almost 450 people, which is a huge record for a mid-week rogaine.”

“Our Little River rogaine had the highest number of participants in Canterbury, with 550 people out with their maps.”
 
In total, Wicked Rogaines had four series last year, made up of three, two-hour events in March, June, August and October with a special Halloween event.
 
“Ian and I feel it is important to give back from our rogaines and at our six-hour event in Little River, we raised money for Lincoln College Students going on a school trip to Nepal. Then at our four-hour Wicked Christmas Rogaine, some of the profits were donated to the Summit Road Society to help them develop the new Tussock Hill Farm at Avoca Valley,” Nora says.

“Our Little River rogaine had the highest number of participants in Canterbury, with 550 people out with their maps.”
 

Wicked Rogaines held their first event in March 2009 at the Sign of the Bellbird. Since then they have covered the majority of the Port Hills, from Living Springs to Godley Head, holding 74 events over the past decade.

“2018 was a huge year for us with more than 3800 people coming along to our rogaine events. In 2019, we are celebrating our 10-year anniversary and have some great rogaines planned and look forward to seeing some of the almost 16,000 participants we have had – over the past decade – out there!”

Wicked Rogaines thanks their fantastic partners Torpedo7 and Suunto for their continued support.
 
“We gave away five Fitness 3 Suunto watches and more than $5000 in awesome Torpedo7 gear. We also welcomed a new sponsor, Christchurch Helicopters, which gave away two trial flights. One of them was with former rugby legend, Richie McCaw, who had participated in our events with his wife Gemma. Both of them seem to have caught the adventure racing bug since their retirement from international sport,” Nora says.

“To celebrate our 10 years, we will organise our 75th rogaine at the Christchurch Adventure Park on March 10. There will be 6-hour, 4-hour and 2-hour options, plus a FREE Wicked Kids Fun event. Participants will explore the park and its surroundings. Entry opens 1st February at 9:00am and includes FREE lift pass during the event.
