Subject: TABLE MOUNTAIN TRAILERS Saturday 22nd September 2018: East Fort, Hout Bay

Greetings Trailers

This week we return to the Republic of Hout Bay for a route with a mixture of trail and road.

Route details

Meet at the parking by Vida e Caffe at the bottom of Chappies.  

We warm up with a run up the road to the start of the trail at East Fort. The lungs get working heading up to the contour path and then we hang a right towards Blackburn Ravine.  Following the single track we are treated to magnificent views (weather permitting) across the bay.

At approximately 6km we start descending and at the trail intersection hang right to head down to Chapmans Peak drive, popping out by the "ticket checker".  From here we have a leg stretching run on the tar back to our cars.

Please remember this a pack run, and with the recent reported incidents its even more important that we look out for each other.  

Rendezvous and Start Time

RV in the parking area 06:50 ready to start at 07:00.

Terrain and Distance

A mix of jeep track, single track and tar.  

Distance: +- 12 kms taking about 2h00 - 2h30mins for Medium Group

Fast Group

Will follow a similar route with an extension to be decided on the day.

Relaxed Group to be confirmed.

*Please note adjustments to the route may be made whilst running depending on the group and weather conditions.

Please bring:

A whistle, water, a warm & waterproof/windproof top, space blanket and ICE tag or card.

Unfortunately no dogs.

Hope to see you on Saturday, have a great week!

Regards

Good Friday morning Trailers,

I'm happy to confirm that we'll be meeting at the Mouille Point lighthouse tomorrow for the route briefing and sign-in at about 6:50, ready to run at 7am.

My weather app shows a chilly but dry morning - please dress appropriately and carry all the obligatory kit:

• Water
  
• Whistle
  
• Warm/windproof top
  
• Space blanket
  
• ICE information in an easily accessible place
  

Regards,

Lorraine

Hi Trailers,

Spring has sprung and the world is puddle-wonderful* and it's time for our own version of the Peace Trail. 

We'll differ slightly from the official run in that we'll begin at the traditional Trailer's start venue: the Mouille Point Lighthouse. From here we'll begin the climb up Signal Hill vía Glengarriff Road. The rest of the Medium group's run will follow the Peace Trail route along single track with amazing views of our darling Table and the Oceans all round. The distance will be about 12km. 

The Faster group will ascend a section of Lion's Head. 

Relaxed group to be confirmed on Friday. 

Bring Water, whistle & a warm, wind proof or waterproof top. Have your  ICE info and space blanket in your pack too please!

No dogs - sorry!

See you on Saturday!

Warning:  Trail running is inherently more dangerous than road running.  It may take place over uneven hazard strewn trails in exposed and often remote terrain where help is not always readily available.

Participation is voluntary and entirely at your own risk as although the organizers take reasonable precautions to ensure runner safety, it cannot be guaranteed.  To this end neither the Club nor the organisers personally can be held liable for any claims relating to inter alia, injuries, disabilities and death. Further any minor child participating in any trail running activity will be deemed to be doing so with the consent of his or her guardian.

 

By starting out on a trail run you explicitly acknowledge that: 

1] you understand the associated risks involved and accept full responsibility for your own safety. 

2] you are medically and physically fit to participate and 

3] are carrying the necessary water, clothing and safety equipment required for the particular run.
