Scouting trips

I have been up in the mountains to check the condition of the trail. I would say 90 % of the routes that I scouted is acceptable, and I have contracted in some help to tackle the very bad bits of the 10 %.

Some of the highlights were:

• Seeing snow on the distant Swartberg and the nearer southern slopes of Craddock Peak whilst almost being blow off the mountain by some strong berg winds
• Running through forest and expecting a velociraptor to attack at any moment
• Spotting some magnificent proteas
• Running through the burnt sections of the mountain and thinking I had been teleported into a desert

It is here!!!

Can you believe it, the World Cup begins today. An EPIC month lies ahead of us.


To our boys in yellow, play your hearts out, and then some! We hope you do well and that you advance to at least the QUARTER FINALS!!!

Don't forget to train, or put a treadmill infront of the TV if you have decided to catch as much of the action as possible.
