In addition to the run, Bragg also kayaked the Cook Strait between the two islands, thereby traversing the whole country, purely under human power.

“The Oregon was glued to my palm for the whole trip, a
constant source of assurance from pinpoint navigation accuracy. When you’re
running 60km+ per day for 53 days, you want to focus on the running, not the
navigation. The Oregon took away the risk of getting lost, allowing me to hit
my daily targets.”

Want to learn more about this journey? Our friends over at
The North Face have created an awesome expedition journal that has more info
about his expedition. Bragg also created a Garmin Adventure for the portion of
the trip where he crossed the Cook Straight by kayak.
