Show Notes
The final of a controversial 'run it straight' event offering $200,000 to the winner has been shifted from Auckland to the Middle East amid calls for it to be banned.
Australian-based Runit Championship League held two trial events at Trusts Arena last month - but the West Auckland venue pulled out of hosting the final, citing safety concerns.
Now, the organisation has announced the final will be held in Dubai this month, with the date yet to be confirmed.
Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explains further.
