THE RUN



This hard, hilly but scenic race is run partly through a forested area. The first three kilometres are moderate to flat as you run out of Makhado/Louis Trichardt. The start of the mountain section is a moderate climb, as routes go for this type of event. This two kilometre section takes you past the five-kilometre marker and on to the real challenge of the mountain. The next four kilometres are tough as you climb a difficult road through beautiful forest. Once over this climb, the race flattens out and then plummets.

The stretch to the 15-kilometre marker is a steep downhill, so watch your footing. There are some very fast sections here. The route flattens out for a kilometre between the 16- and 17-kilometre markers, but the race has not finished with you just yet. There is still a hill to tackle at around 18 kilometres. The final stretch is an easy canter to the finish.
