Pauanui Trail Epic

🏃‍♀️ TRAIL RUNNING + SUPPORTING LOCAL KIDS = PRETTY GOOD COMBO 🤘

Here’s a little crossover between two things pretty close to our hearts.

Our tiny local school, Hikuai School, is currently fundraising to help get its senior students away to Tui Ridge in Rotorua for their school camp and the local community has absolutely come to the party with a heap of awesome prizes for their silent auction.

So naturally, we thought we’d chuck a little No Code flavour into the mix too.

Up for grabs:

🔥 2 x FREE ENTRIES to the 2027 Pāuanui Trail Epic + 2 x No Code Events Hoodies 🔥

Grab a mate, throw in a bid, support a bunch of bloody good local kids and if you’re lucky, come join us on the trails of Pāuanui next March.

As a small event company built right here in this community, this sort of stuff is pretty special to us.

Local people backing local people. Simple as that.

And our entries are just one prize amongst a seriously awesome collection donated by generous local businesses, families and individuals.

👇 Have a nosey, find something you like and chuck a bid on

Every bid helps get our senior kids one step closer to Tui Ridge.

Bid hard. Support local. Run trails. 🤘

🤘 NO CODE APPAREL | VOLUME 01

For a long time, this was just an idea.

A few scribbles. A few late-night conversations. Countless tweaks. Plenty of "what ifs?"

Today, it's finally here.

We didn't set out to make "merch." We wanted to create apparel we'd be proud to pull on ourselves - whether we're heading out for a run, riding bikes, hitting the gym, grabbing a coffee or simply living life.

Together with the legends at WYN Republic, we've built a small collection that's designed to last, perform, and represent what No Code stands for.

Every garment is made to order, and Volume 01 is a limited release. Once pre-orders close, that's it. It'll never be reproduced in this form again.

If you'd like to be part of the first chapter of No Code Apparel, we'd love to have you along for the ride.

📖 Check out the lookbook and place your order here:

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for backing what Sara and I are building. Whether you've joined us at an event, trusted us with your coaching, or simply followed along from the sidelines, we genuinely appreciate it.

Work Hard. Be Consistent. Stay Humble.

— Mark & Sara
No Code 🤘

🚧 Something special is taking shape...🌿

This is a small glimpse of the brand new trail currently being developed between Pāuanui and Tairua.

Once complete, and with the new swing bridge in place, it'll be possible to travel between the two towns completely off-road. From estuary edges and native bush to incredible coastal views, it's shaping up to be something pretty special.

As locals and trail lovers, we're absolutely fizzing.

Not only will this become an amazing asset for our community, but it's impossible not to imagine what it could mean for the future of the Pāuanui Trail Epic. New routes. New adventures. New possibilities.

We'll be keeping a close eye on the progress and can't wait to share more as this incredible project comes to life.

Who's already planning their first run or walk across? 🙋‍♂️🌿

Something pretty special is happening out here…👣🌿

What started as a vision is quickly becoming something real.

The Tairua River Trail is growing - not just as a track, but as a space for people to move, connect, and explore this incredible place we get to call home.

This video captures a bit of everything:
the trail as it stands today,
the mahi going in behind the scenes,
and the momentum building as the Tairua side begins to take shape.

If you look closely, you might even spot a few familiar faces from race day at the Pāuanui Trail Epic - a reminder of what these trails can become when people come together.

This isn’t just about running.
It’s about community.
It’s about access.
It’s about leaving something better behind.

We’re proud to play a small part in supporting something this cool 💚

Have a watch, get inspired…and keep an eye on what’s coming next 👀

The Tairua River Trail is a scenic walking and cycle route along the banks of the Tairua River in the beautiful eastern Coromandel. https://www.tairuarivertr...
