Trail Running race 3:38:25 [4] 24.0 km (9:06 / km) +1300m 7:10 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Fuji Sensor
Awesome race down at Moolmanshoek in the Free State. I was blown away by the spectacular route - a proper off-trail mountain run which felt more like an AR than a trail race.
I kept a conservative pace from the start and felt strong on the steep hills throughout. I need to learn some of Rob's sneaky routes though - I had to pass him twice ;-) The conservative pace paid off with me being able to run the last flat 3km to the finish strongly. Placed 20th out of 288 finishers. Will definitely be back for more!
