This morning Linelle and I set out from her house off Victoria rd. with a fresh wind on our backs. The starting point for the run moved just because it was only the two of us.
Our route headed up Victoria rd and left onto Belvedere taking us onto Milner rd up to Rondebosch Common.
We circled the Common, turning left off Klipfontein on Sawkins and onto Campground. By this time we we running into a strong wind, which made for tough going. After a well-deserved water break at the Shell tap, we tackled the home stretch back onto Palmyra and left onto Victoria.
Route Map
The total distance was 9.5kms and took us 53 minutes - including our water break - which means we were doing 5:45-5:50 mins/km.
Linelle thought we were going too slowly because she was holding me back...
Linelle, I know you're a Hillbilly, and therefore a little mad, but that was certainly not a slow run, and
the only reason I was desperately staying ahead of you is that i was terrified of getting sucked into your jet turbines... vroom!:)
All in all, a great run. We look forward to reconvening at Dean Street on Tuesday. Good luck to all those racing this weekend!
Sounds like a fantastic run! You guys were flying!
