IRONMĀORI Quarter & Half begins with an ocean swim off the Napier beachfront, followed by a flat bike course and a run or walk along Marine Parade. The event provides two triathlon distances: the Half includes a 2 km swim, 90 km ride, and 21.1 km run/walk, and the Quarter consists of a 1 km swim, 50 km ride, and 10.5 km run/walk. Both distances commence at 7:00 AM and can be completed solo, as a three-person team, or as an individual swim, bike, or run discipline. The adaptable format is a key attraction: participants can complete the full triathlon, share the day with teammates, or select a single discipline. This approachability suits first-time participants while offering a defined challenge for those returning. The event is founded on kaupapa, whanaungatanga, community wellbeing, and personal achievement, meaning the atmosphere is as significant as the race time. It welcomes individuals seeking to test their limits and support others, not solely competitors focused on finishing times.

The Spectacle Powered by Puma is a running festival in Whakatū, Nelson, featuring road races, trail races, and ultras within a single event. Its scope is broad, offering distances from a road mile to a 100-mile ultra, including a 10km trail run and a 5km road race. The event also hosts the New Zealand Road Mile Championships and the New Zealand 50km Championships, integrating national-level competition with community participation. The race course transitions between road and trail. The road mile utilizes an inner-Nelson loop that attracted over 5000 spectators during its inaugural running. The event was founded by local runners with the ethos of being “by runners, for runners,” catering to a diverse range of participants: novices, club athletes, ultrarunners, elite milers, and Olympians. The festival aspect is also significant, featuring post-race gatherings and a performance by The Black Seeds to conclude the event.
