The 2 oceans marathon and the Spar ladies race is over! The 2 oceans marathon was held on the 7th of April and the weather did not play along as it was windy and rainny. We had a successful setup with all the fences around the coarse although the wind and rain was a bit of a problem . Nothing that we could not handle! We had to deal with 20,000 plus runners-amazing- this race is getting bigger every year and this was the first rainny and windy race in the last six years.Like all the other races over the last couple of years Jack Lukke planned and controlled it perfectly-well done Jack!
The Spar ladies race was held on the 15 th of April and boy was this a thriller. For the second week in a row the rain and wind was a factor. This was a new coarse and had a some problems of its own. This is another race that is growing by the year and was very close to 20 000 female runners,yes there was some male runners that tried to look like girls....! The race setup was mainly controlled by Frikkie Kotze,well done mate! and yes without this man there could easily have been chaos. And by the way I have never seen so many women at one place together in my life-is this a record? We now await the Cape Town marathon and hope that the weather will play along. Chow untill the next one!
