XRace

Saturday 15 February @ Hikoikio Reserve Petone

XRACE is an exciting parent-and-child adventure race where one parent and one or two children aged between 6 and 14 must work together to locate and complete 10 mystery challenges, racing against the clock and other family teams. There is also a Nippers race for the Under 6’s.

 

More than just a race, XRACE is an immersive family adventure designed to create lasting memories and strengthen bonds between parents and children. It’s a screen-free experience, apart from the obligatory paparazzi photos.

 

Teams can choose their own pace, whether it’s a flat-out sprint from the start or a leisurely walk. 

 

We have been able to secure a 15% discount for you to race together and all those that use this code will be sent off in the same wave on the day.
