Suffered WAY too much last year and i promised myself i wont be back. Maybe next year again!Was it the climbs or heat or perhaps general "unfitness" that resulted in your suffering..? Hope you at least enjoyed the venue, the single track, the finish vibe, and most importantly......the Olives
New Landy new life Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 (edited) I signed up my son online for the 25 km - hope he doesn't bugger me up for that. Only now did I see the climbing of some 900 meters - ooops. I told him after his good results in the 15km Breast Challenge he needs to move to the bigger boy stuff.

Yes this is a climbing route, since it is on the slopes of the Du Toit's kloof mountains, it is impossible not to have some hills on the course. However, the reward is awesome views & some sublime single track..!
