This Saturday I was back in my home town, George, running the greenest trails on Earth! ;) I started from my parent's house and did one of my favourite single tracks - 3km of awesome natural Garden Route forest. I then headed up the mountain to about 7.5km, where I got onto a single track I spotted during a run earlier this year. To my disappointment, it was only about 1km of new trail, before it linked to my normal trail leading to the old George Dam. I ran all the way to the dam and back. The heat was fairly extreme and the humidity very high. That being said, who can complain about scenery like this?!
