shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 13
Did the 1-hour course with Fran. I aimed to clean-out the middle section of the map, East of Beyers Naude with the option of crossing over to the West side if we had extra time at the end. Twas a really hilly course, with several out-and-back route choices required to get the points. We were at the bottom of Beyers (#56) with about 12 minutes to spare so Fran pushed hard up the hill and we managed a quick loop to the West before pushing it to the finish. We were 30s late which cost us 10 penalty points, but our initial 700-point haul was enough to secure 1st mixed team and 3rd overall :-) Fun area to have this in and great to see all the RunJozi shirts make an appearance again!
