Jonkers Spring Trail Run

Our trail grading: ORANGE 5B

Distance: 12km

Extremeness: Technical single track and wetness

Location: Jonkershoek, Stellenbosch, South Africa

Joggers: Deryck Nel & me

This was the fist run of spring and also my first proper extreme jog in 5 weeks! Needless to say, I started to see stars and black spots after only 1km on the Canary trail. We then took it easier and connected to the Eliotte trail via the contour path. We picked up the pace coming down Never Ending Story and finally headed home on the Jonkers loop jeep track.

Fairly wet single track!
