Event
Bonitas Radox Golden Gate Challenge
2012-10-25 - 2012-10-28
This 3 Day Track & Trail run will see participants cover just over 70km’s in 3 days staged out of a single base camp in the Golden Gate Highlands National Park. A race village will be set up, each participant will be accommodated in her/his own tent for the duration of the challenge and can expect nice hot showers, clean ablutions and a great atmosphere. Full catering will be available to all participants for the duration of the challenge, and will include a 24 hour snack and coffee bar! The run will incorporate mainly hiking trails and jeep tracks – a true off road experience! We will take you to places you will not normally be allowed to go like Little Serengeti, Cathedral Caves and lots of other hidden gems within this park.
Please do not judge the race by its distances as it truly is a challenge that come with great rewards but that means conquering big mountains and high altitude. You truly feel small once in and among these historic mountains! While running we will also make sure that you contemplate life by getting you in close contact with your past and the future – you will be running for the survival of a species (Bearded Vulture) but also be confronted by ancient rock paintings and past civilisations. By running this event you will set off on a journey – make sure to enjoy it with eyes wide open! The last day will start off with an early morning night run which will add a new dimension and adventure to this challenge and promise to bring out the adventurer in you!
