Nikita Gane has signed up to run the St Clair Half and Noosa half marathons next month, plus the Coast to Coast next year, so she knows her stuff! 

But Nikita is not just a super-star athlete… She and her husband Freddie Gane purchased Kaituna Ridges, a beautiful 800-hectare sheep and beef farm between Havelock and Blenheim almost two-years-ago….  They’ve got 4 young children, run an agri-tourism business, have started a Romney sheep stud, and are looking at making wool apparel from Kaituna Ridges sheep.

It doesn’t stop there….Nikita has organised many fundraisers on the farm - including a Shear-a-thon, at Kaituna Ridges for 24 hours…  She joins us now from Havelock.
