Race Report
Running on Wine
A
round 600 eager trail runners and lovers of good wine made their way to the Blaauwklippen Wine Estate for the Cellar2Cellar Trail Run & Wine Experience, with the serious racers ?rst taking on the 20km or 12km trail runs, and then many of them joining the 12km Wine Experience ‘run.’ This took them through the vineyards of Blaauwklippen, Stellenrust, Dornier, Kleinood, Waterford and Stellenzicht, with all six participating wine farms, together with a Checkers Odd Bins tasting station, tempting participants to linger and taste their wine along with Portobello cheeses, chocolates and Wedgewood Nougats that were on offer. In the serious racing, Matthew Daneel took top spot on the podium in the men’s 20km Trail Run in an impressive 1:13:23, followed by Dawid Visser and William Leslie. Thamar Clark won the women’s 20km in 1:37:03, with Linda Kinco-Smith second and Sarah-Jane Jackson third. Claudia Wesemann was ?rst woman home in the 12km, clocking 1:01:52, with Yolandi Visser second and Nicola Collins third. Craig Burns took men’s gold in the 12km with a quick 52:52, with Jacques Jantjies second.

ON THE LIGHTER SIDE…
Nicola Collins was one of many runners that did both the 12km Trail Run followed by the fun-?lled 12km Wine Experience. “To just do the 12km or 20km at Cellar2Cellar would be cheating,” she said. “The whole experience, atmosphere and the people you meet along the way are just awesome, not to mention the delicious wine, cheese, chocolate and nougat tasted along the way. I can’t think of a more fun-?lled way to spend a beautiful spring day with friends.”
