You should've introduced yourself and chatted to me. I'm the lady with the sandals<br />This was my first trail/country run. I was expecting a few kms on dirt track and the rest on tar. But I loved the way it turned out. It was loads of fun, took me two hours but it didn't feel like an hour. I had no blisters - just dusty, dirty feet at the end. The beauty of running in my huaraches (www.invisibleshoe.com) is that I get no blisters and no black toe nails. The following day I ran the Totalsports Ladies 10km barefoot. Sadly it was because I forgottom my sandals at home :-)<br />I trust I will see you on the road - please say Hi!Africanmomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3059484920052354114.post-57058846307909286412010-08-12T19:29:12.133+02:002010-08-12T19:29:12.133+02:00you are going to thoroughly enjoy Mt Aux, and I ca...you are going to thoroughly enjoy Mt Aux, and I can't wait for your pix.

I need to find a good kids run for my four year old. He loves to run and wants to come with me all the time:)<br /><br />Thanks for sharing the wonderful pictures:) You are the guy version of me in Blogland! When I say this I mean that you take as many pictures as I do:) I think pictures add so much to a race report....especially a race report from South Africa:) Take care Johann!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01016242849142019105noreply@blogger.com
