Xtreme: 27km,5km,15km – Trail run stage race – R550
Start Time
27km 07:05 (provisional, weather dependant)
5km 19:05 (Night Run)
15km 08:05
Stage 1 – 1way, drop-off start
Distance – 27km
Total Ascent: 500m
Description:
Stage one will see runners do a one-way route with a remote drop-ff and running back towards die keldery venue. The first 6k’s will be uphill, but with fresh legs, this won't pose a big problem. From here it's a bit downhill and then onto the famous Olifantsrivier canal. A few short bumps in the road before the final stretch will test the endurance of the runners and, depending on the fitness, will prove who has an advantage going forward onto stage2 and 3.
Stage 2 – NIGHT run (remember headlamps)
Distance – 5km
Total Ascent: 60m
Description:
After resting the legs from the morning, runners will have a chance to gain some overall time with a night run on Saturday evening. The 5km is basically flat and the route is all vineyard roads. As this race takes part after sunset, all runners must wear headlamps.
Stage 3 – circular route
Distance – 15km
Total Ascent: 500m
Description:
The final stage follows the same route on Sunday as the 15km MTB route. This route is fairly flat and the surface is clean and easy. The previous 2 stages will certainly claim its toll on runners, but after a final 3k’s on easy vineyard road to the finish, runners can enjoy a cold one.
