GREG BASSAM

Kia ora, I’m Greg – a passionate trail runner who loves exploring new places and sharing them with others. Whether it’s a new trail or a fresh viewpoint, i’ll always try to take you somewhere different. You’ll get a little nugget of history and… if you’re lucky (and can find them) a hidden chocolate or two enroute!

I come from a triathlon background and have proudly represented both Great Britain and New Zealand at multiple World and European Championships. I’ve twice won my age group at Ironman New Zealand, finishing third overall in December 2022.

While I’ve always dabbled in trail running, I eventually realised I wanted to spend less time swimming and more time in the mountains– and I haven’t looked back. Over the years, I have both won or placed on the podium in a number of trail races, though for me, the joy is in the journey: being fit, training with purpose, and running through the mountains. There’s no better feeling than a morning run on a perfect day with a few friends!

Since moving back to Christchurch in 2023, I’ve been making the most of the Port Hills and Southern Alps—my ultimate playground.

Look forward to seeing you out on the trails!
