Hi guys!
I hope everyone had a relaxing weekend, and is ready to start the week with a scenic long run tomorrow (Tuesday) morning?
When: Tuesday, 2 Feb 2010, 05:30
Where: Great Westerford
Distance: +- 15km
Route Description:
We start as per the old favourite route, up Dean Street, along Newlands Avenue, over the M3 and up Boshoff. Water stop at Stone Church (approx 4km point). From here we head up Glastonbury as usual, only we don't stop here! Up Gloucester to the 4-way stop, and over into Klaasens Road. From here we detour up a short hill called Monterey Ave (a swear word to some!) But don't worry, this is about as high as we go - the route back is a real treat! We loop down Upper Primrose Avenue and follow Klaasens Road all the way to Kirstenbosch Top Gate. Water break just outside the Garden gates. We now run through Kirstenbosch Gardens (the best time of day to explore the gardens, before the tourists arrive!) Exit at the main gates, another water break at Stone Church and follow the regular route back - along Riverside Road, over the M3 near the Shell, and from here we can either tackle Ravensberg for one last hill and take Newlands Ave back to Dean, or cruise through the joggers path and head back via Mains Road.
The aim is to take it slow and easy, and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
Thanks All - I really enjoyed this mornings run! Thanks for the support up the hills! Needed it! And hope I did not hold you back too much! Linelle
