What I’ve been up to trying to recover between my two long back to back races… The first is at 10 degrees and the second at 37 degrees centigrade.

Going into the race last weekend in Sun City I realised the psychological importance of the race, with the Powerade Triple Challenge being a week later in Natal, and that Iain would probably be the main to beat in these two of the biggest multisport races on the South African calender.
I knew also that I was strong, but far from radical form would need to leave a part of myself out on course to defend the first real title I’d won a year prior in Sun City at the inaugural event in the Pilansberg. Iain had beaten me three weeks earlier, at the final of the Jeep Msinsi, and through a media release I’d seen of his in the week’s build-up, I knew he was confident and figured he had it sewn up.
This is a small collection of photo’s from the past weekend’s Totalsports Challenge in Sun City, in a video format. Enjoy.
