Mission Reports

Long-run missions worth reporting

Reserved for the half-day-or-more missions: mountain routes, big weather, plenty of #mountainskag, and the kind of run that deserves more than a quick activity upload.

Add the route, photos, Strava activity, and story so others can read what happened out there.

Voting guidance and terms

Vote for the report that best captures a real OINK-style mission: New Zealand first, mountain or bush terrain, useful route detail, strong storytelling, and photos that help other runners understand the day.

Do not judge only by distance, vert, or how extreme the mission looks. A first mountain mission, a new bush route, or a big personal step-up from an up-and-coming runner can be more impressive than a larger outing from a seasoned old hand.

Reports must be open to public access, not limited to signed-in OINK users. A Strava activity link is required because it helps OINK admin validate that the mission is real. Extra credit goes to reports with a GPX file. Entries must be good-faith, New Zealand-based mission reports. Fake reports, spam, trolling, hacking, vote manipulation, or other attempts to game the voucher draw may be removed or disqualified.

Reports may use AI-supported editing for clarity, spelling, structure, or light drafting help, but entries that appear overly AI-generated rather than a real personal mission report may be disqualified.
