Event: The Wilds Short Course
 

A great course in the Wilds in johannesburg. It was a really tough one with a 2.4 km strait line distance but that was not possible in the speed terrain. The map was done by Dave Peel, british coach, and was good except the contours were too abundent for the area as they were at 2m interviles.
I pulled off a win which i was suprised about as i walked the won hill and thought others would have run it.

Long - Splits

The first of the salamon sprint seris races of the year.
it was supposed to be 45km but we skipped a section due to a team mate who was struggling as it was her first Ar race. We did drop her in the deep end a bit and i wonder if she will be back.

It was mostly at a slow pace but we did pick it up later. There where a few hectic climbs as can be seen by the total climb and we skipped about another 180m of it.
