Day 2 | Maunganui Bluff

15 October 2022 | 17°C | 28km

I wake up by the sound of someone deflating their sleeping pad. 8am is the time on my phone display. I slept like a baby!

It’s a sunny day and I feel energized. I wanna walk! After packing I get to know some of the other hikers in the little pavilion/shelter where everyone that is not an early bird is having breakfast and getting ready for the day.

I am one of the last ones leaving camp at 9am. It just takes a short walk through a small forest until I reach Ninety Mile Beach. It’s going to be a beach walk all day.

Thought of the day: Will I ever get to the southern terminus if I do less than 30km a day?
