Fairtree Simonsberg Contour Trail Run, Day 2

Trail running at Delvera, Fairtree Simonsberg stage race, Day 2

The 12km route turned out to be an unexpected 15km on both days, and we were happy to have done it.

“The event will start and finish at Delvera farm where runners will be treated to breakfast and lunch, kiddies entertainment and a wonderful area to relax after their run, with showers and massage service. Two routes will be on offer for the two-day stage race, the long route being around 25km each day and the other a 12km route on Saturday and Sunday.”

 

  • Running a race assigns a point to a sport that often feels very pointless. It’s an exuberant payoff to months of tedium. It’s a way of crafting an end boss for a particularly cumbersome video game. It’s a fun, monstrous reason to keep putting one foot in front of the other. So, do yourself a favor: go build a monster.Matthew Inman,
