    Muriwai Sea Slugs

    The Muriwai Sea Slugs started in the 1970s as a loose group of neighbours gathering on Sunday mornings to run Auckland's wild west coast trails. That original spirit, built by Cameron's father and his mates, never left. When Cameron and his brothers revived the club, they inherited something rare in running culture: genuine continuity across generations. Now around eighty runners show up to the Muriwai Deli every Sunday at eight, heading out for six to eight kilometres through dunes, headlands, and clifftop paths where the Tasman crashes below. There are no fees, no pace requirements, no barriers. The crew includes hundred-mile ultramarathon veterans and people running trails for the first time, moving together at an easy pace before circling back for coffee and pastries. The Muriwai Sea Slugs measure their runs not by splits but by whether the trails were worth the effort, the coffee was hot, and the conversation was honest. By those measures, they have been getting it right for more than four decades.
