Well done to all who took part in the Series and braved the heat today at Hennops, rain at Ilhanti and steep hills at Mountain Sanctuary and Pelindaba! We hope you have all enjoyed the Series and have a fantastic finish…

Wow what a route the weekend at Ilhanti. It was fun to run - firstly you had the smell of rain in your nose, then the smell of oranges followed by the sounds of rushing river waters. It was by far the best trail run in the series, I enjoyed it very much. It is a good thing the next race is only in two weeks time.......because my shoes need a good cleaning after running in the slippery mud and crossing the rivers. Well done to all who took on the challenge of running the XL route. Looking…

Thanks to Ian Ashmole for putting together some awesome trails. Despite warnings, the weather…

Wow what a race at Pelindaba the weekend...can I get a whoop whoop?

Because that is what "Mount Everest" (the last hill) did...it whooped my behind.

I think I stopped something like three times to catch my breath, but I have to add I have a cold - hehehe.

The route was as always fun to run and the other runners were very friendly.

Thanks again to all the organisers, runners and sponsors who made the race possible

See you all the weekend at Ilhanti - hope it…
