Spoilt for Choice by Lettuce

I received an email this week with a list of things we might complain about but in actual fact we should be grateful for. These two were particularly relevant to us .......

"FOR WEARINESS AND ACHING MUSCLES AT THE END OF THE DAY BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE BEEN CAPABLE OF WORKING HARD."

"FOR THE ALARM THAT GOES OFF IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM ALIVE."

With these two things in mind it brings to the fact that we here on the Garden Route are spoilt for choice

1) Training venues : We have highlighted these in the CX Press with our "Where are they?" competition and this weeks shows another "gem" of a trail run . See the pics below


2)Training partners.The Garden Route has become know as the capital of Adventure Racers in the country and there is a group that has raced all over the world and now live on the Garden Route.

3) A variety of sports on the go at any time. Take for example this weekend 23 April . If you are not going to do the Iron Man in PE then you will have to choose between the following:

Mountain Bike Races at Chandelier Game Farm near Oudtshoorn from 10 to 55 km in length

Two Trail runs at Chandelier a 10 and 21 km

The Outeniqua Marathon and Half marathon which runs through the George forests and historic "Seven Passes " road.

And then the Homtini Mountain Bike race to finish off the weekend

And if none of that bites you can head of to one of the many hikes and mountain bike routes or lagoons and have some fun with friends and family.

Have a GREAT WEEKEND and make the most of where we live.
