Pelindaba Mountain Marathon - 1:10'000
Had a good race, with good concentration all the way through the course. Small route choice error 16-17 when I didn't drop into the river, instead trying to contour round the side and having to drop in late for the fence crossing point (30s). Saw Alex coming out of 15 (8 mins), and then again from 21 onwards, but only passed him on route choice 24-25.
Finished 1st, about 70s ahead of Eugene (big surprise that he was that close). Felt I had run well and hard, but I think I wasn't as fast as him on the rocky downs. Looks like I only took a decisive lead at 20.
