HOT PROPERTY INTERVIEW - ELINA USSHER: Elina Ussher, ex cross country skier and track runner, was born in Finland and moved to New Zealand in 2005. Now the wife of race director and five-time men's longest day winner, Richard Ussher, she refers to herself as a '40 year old housewife'. However this month she came from behind to win her third women's Coast to Coast longest day multisport race. Since 2006, Elina hasn't missed a race and has been on the podium nine times, including three victories.
