Hi,
Our Cool Running long run group has been hamstrung for long enough! This Sunday we have a comeback run. Having been sitting on the injured bench for what feels like ages, I am persuaded now to hit a modest 15 to 17-odd km run this weekend. Clearly our lack of Cool Running for the last few months was not ideal. But, for those who enjoy making the most of the Cape spring weekends, I’ll be back leading the group through a favourite local area this Sunday.
Details: Sun 2 Oct, +/- 15 to 17km at an easy 5min/km pace.
Start time: 06:30
Venue: Kirstenbosch Top Gate (Rycroft Gate), Corner of Klaasens & Rhodes Drive
Route: Flattish, to Constantia Nek and back (on different routes), loop through the spring flowering Kirstenbosch Gardens and a down to Paradise Motors via Liesbeek River Riverside Road.
Drinks: We’ll have a stash after 9km running and drinks afterward. Lots of taps/water available en route.
Short cuts: Cut out a part of the run to limit it to 9km.
Longer option: Those wanting more can easily get a 22km run with an extra loop.
I hope you are keeping well and enjoying getting out on the roads and trails this spring. I look forward to joining you, just have to keep distance down to modest numbers. To avoid a blip when your bio kinetically-challenged group leader is sidelined, we’ll need to dip into our group’s ranks to keep us going in the future.
Cheers for now,
