Lactic Turkey is a small company run by Shaun Collins and a bunch of great helpers. We run Lactic Turkey as a hobby to give something back to the community and sports that they enjoy themselves. Our events are aimed at people of all ages, fitness levels and skills and we actively coach people to improve their skills by holding evening coaching sessions relevant to upcoming events. Our participants
range in age from small children carried in backpacks to 70 year olds. They mainly represent the Auckland region but also participants from further afar with strong contingents from areas including New Plymouth, Whakatane, Rotorua, Taupo and some from further a field, such as Wellington and the South Island. Our professionally organised events inspire a real sense of self-belief in the participants when obstacles are overcome. The common profile of a Lactic Turkey competitor is a person that wants to get into the outdoors to experience life and conquer the physical and mental challenges that inevitably arise. We as event organisers are active in outdoor pursuits and enjoy exploring new places.
