WANDERLUST 108
SATURDAY DECEMBER 2
We fully embrace the concept of living well at
Style, so it’s great to see a healthy living festival
coming to Christchurch. Wanderlust 108 is
billed as the world’s only mindful triathlon,
combining running, yoga and meditation.
Arrive with your yoga mat for a 7am start
at St Leonards Park in Sumner and spend
the day completing the three legs of your
triathlon, accompanied by some smooth DJ
tunes. Do the 5km your way – run, walk, or
skip if you feel like it, take part in a 90-minute
yoga class and a 30-minute guided meditation
led by nationally recognised teachers. Not
surprisingly, the gurus behind all this hail from
LA’s Wanderlust Centres, which has now
toured the event in 17 countries.
