Each year tens of thousands of people take part in Auckland's annual Round the Bays fun run. This year a group of vegans are taking on the masses under the banner Team Vegan. Team Vegan organisers are putting out a call to fellow vegans to join the team. This is a great opportunity to increase the visibility of the vegan community, get some exercise and have some fun at the same time. We plan to have ‘Team Vegan' t-shirts made and SAFE is sponsoring an end-of-run veggie BBQ for participants. This is a fun run, so it's for everyone, no matter what your fitness level - walkers and runners alike are welcome! We even have our own vegan personal trainer on board to assist with training schedules and advice. The 8.4 km run takes place on Sunday, 16 March along Auckland's beautiful waterfront. The registration fee is $15. If you are interested in joining Team Vegan or have any questions email Deidre at: deidre.bourke@gmail.com More info on the run itself. Come on vegans - help us bust the vegan stereotype, let's show people what a healthy energetic bunch we really are!
