Greyton, we came, we saw, we conquered...

We left Cape Town on Friday afternoon, but getting out of town on a weekend isn't always easy... the traffic was horrid.  We pulled off for an early dinner and when we finally arrived in Greyton, we booked into our backpackers hostel and registered without any hassels.  We even managed to squeeze in a dessert and coffee run before bed.  I didn't have a great nights sleep.  Myself, Mel and Russ were doing the 10km trailrun and Digz was braving a 45km mountain bike race.  It's only our second running race and we managed to shave 15 minutes off our last 10km race.  It was cold.  I am still learning how to dress for winter running.  I haven't got it right yet but getting there.  The views were incredible and honestly the most beautiful 10km race I have ever done.

It seemed crazy to make a small trek for a race so short but it was completely worth it... never too old for backpacking and never too old for mini-adventures with great friends.  I highly recommend it.
