Buffelspoort – Totalsports Xterra, total success

This past weekend Rehidrat Sport held the Totalsport Xterra at the Buffelspoort Dam near Rustenburg. With the heat and difficult terrains a challenge lay in front of all the participants. From starting with a 1.5km swim, 26.5 km mountain bike and then finishing it with the 12km trail run, which makes part of the Xterra Full program. There was also a Totalsports Xterra Lite that included the 400m swim, 17km mountain bike ride and then 6km trail run. Part of the Xterra Buffelspoort challenge included climbing the Buffelspoort Dam’s wall, which would’ve been a challenge to some.

What made this Xterra great was that it was split into two day, from 26 January to 27 January 2013.
