Ultra-Runner Conquers Grueling 100K Cape Town Trail Race After Nearly 20 Hours
- Ran the brutal 100K Ultra-Trail Cape Town race, with over 16,000 feet of climbing on technical trails around Table Mountain
- Underestimated the difficulty of the course - extremely rocky and steep, required hands-and-knees scrambling at times
- Battled heat, humidity, and dehydration on the climbs and descents of the course
- Despite the challenges, the stunning scenery and aid station support kept spirits up
- Finished in 19 hours 48 minutes, after a grueling final 20K with two more big climbs
