Plett Athletics Club – Bosky Dell Rose Farm Photos
Plett Athletics Club held its latest trail run last Saturday at the stunning Bosky Dell Rose Farm. 38 runners tackled the tough trail out from the rose gardens, up an endless tough climb to the estates vineyard.
The 4 km route turned back down hill, first home running the 4 km was Werner Harris in 29.01, Lisa Van Zyl 29.02 followed by Justin and Marianne Van Jaarsveld in 35 minutes.
The 7 km trail continued and looped around the vineyards jeep track. First home running strong in the 7 km was Jo Anne Van Vuuren in 52.03, Lisa Behrens 52.04, Carl Behrens 52.05, Kristy and Jane Donald in 53.20 and Vicki Meggersee 53.37.
The 10 km route branched off down a massive 2 km hill that had to be traversed back up, storming home first was Kyle Van Vuuren 57.07 followed by Georgie Minopetros 1.01, Johan De Bruin 1.02, Mike Van Vuuren 1.03, Janet Woodhead 1.06:30, and Gert Van Jaarsveld 1.06:43.
Truly a family event with mother and son Jo Anne and Kyle Van Vuuren winning the 7 km and 10 km respectively. After recovering, the remainder of the morning was spent relaxing in the beautiful Rose Garden Pavilion. Breakfast rolls, freshly baked muffins and cream teas were well earned.
A HUGE THANK YOU to Rae Wilkinson Gilbert for hosting this special event and making our club so welcome.
