Good Morning Trailers
This Saturday we cross to the other side of the Bay.
We warm up with a trot up the road to the start of the trail at East Fort. From the shortcut trail we join the jeep track until we get the split to the higher contour path where we may split into groups, those who don't like heights or don't want the steeper climb can continue along the jeep track. We all end up at Blackburn Ravine and follow the contour path towards Chapmans Peak. Along the single track we are treated to magnificent views (weather permitting) across the bay.
At approximately 7km groups can decide whether to summit Chapmans Peak or head down to Chapmans Peak drive, popping out by the "ticket checker". From here we have a leg stretch on the tar (approx 4km) back to our cars.
Please remember this a social pack run led by committee with plenty of opportunities for photographs, and its important that we look out for each other. Within your speed group, you will need to be sure that if you come to a turn that the runner behind you has seen which way you go.
