What a way to start my day - running up Rhodes Memorial with great friends and stunning views of Cape Town!!! Amazing!

Well done to the Hillbillies tackling Rhodes Mem for the first time. Dy seems to like this route even more than Kirstenbosch!!
And welcome back Allen! We had a record turn-out this morning (of late) with 5 Hillbillies arriving, ready and [not so] eager to tackle Rhodes Mem. Some of us knew what we were in for, others were running this route for the first time. But in all, I think everyone enjoyed it (at least after we'd caught our breath again!), and we were treated to an awesome sunrise view of Cape Town from the top. And cleverly spotted by Linelle - no more Cooling Towers!

Thanks to the Hillbillies for the great company this morning. See you guys on Thursday, 6am, for a flat 8km recovery run.

Next week Tuesday sees the first of our earlier Tuesday starts - the mornings are getting light enough for us to start at 5:45am on a Tuesday now. Which means an extra 2km, give or take, that we can add into our morning routes. Thursdays remain at 6am year-round. In another 6 - 8 weeks we'll be able to nudge Tuesday morning times up to 5:30am, but you'll have plenty of advance notice of this time change.
