Rotorua Daily Post
For most, running 100 miles is challenging enough but Paora Raharaha has taken it two steps further at the Tarawera Ultramarathon.
Raharaha, from Paeroa in the North Island, completed the challenging course in a pair of gumboots and added to his feat by completing 10 burpees every kilometre - 1600 in total.
"I ran in gumboots at the Auckland Marathon last year with two mates who were raising money for charity," Raharaha said.
"I decided to add burpees in there for Tarawera. It was my first miler as well so it was tough, I haven't done much trail running so I found the trails tough, quite technical.
