Happy 2016 everyone!
We had a very good turnout for our first run of the year, 36 in total with six newbies and we welcomed back two who have been out of action for some time- Lanesse Collins and Sam Brinkman, in addition Mark Garbers from UK joined his parents Neil and Felicity.

Seems
all went well with the three groups as no reports of misadventures. The eight in the Slow group made good time
through to Kirstenbosch so we extended our route through to the foot of Nursery
ravine where we saw the Main Group gallop past in fine style.
Recovery group took a turn to early, but still managed to do the intended route a little differently. They covered approximately 8kms. The slow group did approximately 9.3kms. The main group finished at lightening speed, no one actually knows how far they ran! It should have been approximately 11km.
All in all it was a good start to the trail running New Year! See some photos below of the day.

Warning: Trail running is inherently more dangerous than road running. It takes 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.
