6th September, 2009 - Hout Bay (20kms)

Do you have a morning running group that fellow stars can join. Are you looking to join such a group? See the info below on the right!

Don't forget if you need motivation, just look at the bottom of the Blog

The Run this week....

Meeting at 7:30 at the base of Chapman's Peak in the car park (see below for directions)

This is one of our longest runs but a scenic one and thankfully there are a number of short cut opportunities :) We start by running up to the top of Chapman's Peak. The first coke stop is at the Lookout point. From here we head back down and the second coke stop is at the car park where we started.

The route now goes right through to the circle next to Imizamo Yethu, here we turn right up Victoria Avenue and the third coke stop at the intersection with Empire (for a shorter route you can go down Empire). The route follows Victoria Avenue down though past the Spar and towards the beach and right to the end of the harbour before doubling back inside the harbour for the 4th coke stop outside Mariners Wharf. We now follow the road back along Princess Street until the circle where we turn back into main street. For those doing the full route, you turn into Promenade just after the Caltex garage, heading down to the beach and then back along beach road to the parking lot.
