22 runners took
advantage of the glorious weather and pitched up at Rhodes Mem. A bit of a
lung-busting climb to the turnstile just below Blockhouse and then glorious
single track through the forest, over streams, along boardwalks, past
waterfalls accompanied by all the foresty clichés – birdsong, dappled sunlight
through the trees.
The Recovery group turned back a little earlier than
Skeleton Gorge and covered 11kms in a two and half hours and the Main Group ran
13.6kms in 3 hours. A splinter group decided to avoid the big climbs on the way
back and came via Newlands forest, they covered 13.9kms and were back before
Recovery.
Thank you to Richard for leading and Gaeleen for sweeping and taking
photos. A beautiful forest run.
