In this week's edition of the Weekly Shred Daniel McHardy catches up with Olympic kayaker Mike Dawson who is about to embark on the adventure of a lifetime, in one day. Him and a group of adventurers/recreational warriors (including world champion extreme kayaker Sam Sutton) are setting out to see how much they can pack into one day this Friday, hoping to kick-start a nation-wide movement called One Day NZ.

Their itenery includes skiing Ruapehu, dipping into the hot pools in Taupo, mountain biking shuttles in Whakarewarewa, walking on the Kaituna river track, rafting the Kaituna, surfing at Papamoa and a lovely sunset beer at Pap Tav.

Here Mike talk about his big day planned and see if it entices you to get out and enjoy a slice of Aotearoa.
