 Good news for all trail running enthusiasts suffering from post ProNutro AfricanX Trailrun blues, entries for the 2014 ProNutro AfricanX Trailrun presented by New Balance will open on Thursday, 02 May 2013. Even better news is that the event will once again take place in March, which means you are already one month closer to the experience of a lifetime. [...]  The matter of compulsory kit for trail running events has been hotly debated in the past. Whilst it is debatable as to what exactly should be required, I believe that this this is entirely necessary and that that organisers need to specify a minimum gear list, and most importantly, enforce it. [...]  The Thursday Celtic Trail Group remains my favourite pack run. Here are the planned routes for May 2013. Please note that headlamps are now compulsory. [...]  Kane Reilly and Nicholas Rupanga of Team Salomon set a blistering pace during Stage One of the much anticipated ProNutro AfricanX Trailrun presented by New Balance in the beautiful Elgin, Grabouw area on Friday, 19 April 2013.

Bailey will team up with training partner Ben Brimble. [...]  So my entry to the PUFfeR 2012 has been confirmed, and the training has started!

[...]  According to Hendrico Burger, Route Designer, this will be the first time in the history of the ProNutro AfricanX Trailrun that a stage features so much single trails. “Stage Two will be a stage for real runners. In addition to the copious amount of single trails, runners will also need to contend with tough terrain that features a lot of loose surfaces, ups and downs and very little level running. The route won’t, however, be too technical for fit runners,” says Burger. [...]  As spoilt as we are, living with Table Mountain on our doorstep, it is unsafe to venture on the mountain alone, and many trail runners (especially the ladies) are prevented from enjoying the endless kilometers of world-class trail on offer. Fortunately the trail running community has grown in leaps and bounds in the last few years. Not only do we have a fledgeling trail running association in the Western Cape, but we have a number of active trail running groups providing the opportunity for anyone who is moderately fit to join an organised run.
