    The Midlife Crisis thread

    Less than 9 months after starting exercising and I've done a quarter marathon, 2 half marathons, and 2 full marathons (on consecutive days including bush trails). I've already signed up for more trail runs and marathons. I think this is a healthy mid life crisis to have, compared with some...

    AKL airport has been talking about integrated domestic terminal and 2nd runway for a long time. More than 10 years ago both were 5 years from opening. Obviously that has not happened, and not just due to covid. I'm not expecting them any time soon. As for MEL QF does use the pier with high...
