THE RUN
This tough, hilly route starts off deceptively with an easy two kilometre downhill canter through the village before heading out onto farmlands. Around the six kilometre marker the route becomes a gravel road passing fields of giant proteas, South Africa’s national flower. The hard work only begins after the halfway mark with a steady continuous climb through plantations of barley, wheat, oats and canola. The road pulls relentlessly upward for over five kilometres where mercifully you reach the highest point at 16 kilometres. This is a good time to breathe deeply and enjoy the view before a pleasant jog back to Napier. There is one final sting in this beauty’s tail: a gradual but tough climb to the finishing post.
