FEEDBACK Sat 29 June, Hout Bay East Fort to Chapman's Peak

 Gay who managed this weeks run reports as follows:

A few 'newbies' joined, arrived without water, whistle
etc,  so were told the importance of the four W's and we were on our way.
Lovely winter's morning, no wind, little chilli to start, but soon warmed up on Chapman's Peak drive.  Led by Richard, swept by Dawn - I had to take over
the role of official photographer as we were missing our usual photographers (Alan, Faye, Jackie and Lorraine).  

Calm morning out there, lovely flowing streams and waterfalls. Once down to Chapman's peak drive, it was a couple of km's downhill back to the cars - for some road running is a little hard on the knees, and for others, a nice way to stretch the legs - we even passed Hout Bay's local trail running hero, Ryan Sandes, on his way up
Chapman's Peak Drive.

Faye led a walking group of about 4 - they drove up to East Fort and started from there - avoiding the firs km of tar (and hill).  
We did pass them along the contour path and left Geoff behind at the end to make sure they all arrived back safely.








 Distance just short of 12 Kms

With thanks to Gae who stood in for Dave as run manager and as photographer, Richard for leading and Dawn for sweeping.
