22 Talk of the Town ADVERTISING / NEWSDESK: (046) 624 4356 Find us on Facebook April 25, 2019 Trail run fitting start to Challenge The Royal St Andrews Hotel Amanzi Challenge kicked off with an 8km Trail Run organised by the Kowie Striders last Friday morning. Just under 100 participants set off across the Royal Port Alfred Golf Course at 7.30am. Most were keenly competitive runners, with walkers bringing up the rear. Jon Houzet and Adele Steck from Talk of the Town joined the throng. On the other side of the golf course, marshals handed out much appreciated Easter eggs to give runners an energy b o o st . From there the route followed a stretch of road and then onto the beach at Saltvlei. It was tough going on the beach as the sand was soft. Opting to walk over the rocky areas was tricky in case of a fall. There was much relief when the route moved off the beach at Kelly’s Blue Flag Beach. From there it was an interesting little loop on tar and dirt roads just behind the beach until we groaned at the prospect of another stretch of beach at West Beach. But here the sand was much firmer and a pleasure to walk on in the beautiful morning weather, observing the start of the SA Bodyboarding Champs taking place at the beach. Marshals directed us to a short stretch on the Kowie River towpath just past Guido’s, then along Beach Road and up the notorious old concrete staircase that caused a number of participants to slow down and take a breather. The staircase leads to Grand Street and from there we went down Muller Drive and entered the final stretch on a trail through dune bush behind Medolino Caravan Park, before coming out a st o n e ’s throw from the finish at the Royal St Andrew’s Hotel. The winner of the race was Vusi Zondo in a spectacular time of 26:51, with Nikelo Lolwana second in 27:48 and Sinethemba Jilingisi third in 28:07. First woman home was Asanda Zamisa in 36:16, with Roxi Smith second in 36:33 and Jene Banfield third in 38:45. Among the walkers, and coming in ahead of a couple of runners, Jon Houzet was proudly first in one hour 11 minutes and 18 seconds. Cash prizes were awarded to the winners, including in age categories.

PARSC chair Keith Fryer said it was a very successful competition with 18 boats taking part, including a lot of out-of-towners. Two boats – No Fear and Sunfish – shared first place in the bottom fishing section of the competition, splitting the R12,000 cash prize. COLOURFUL CATCH: Kallie Ludicke from the boat Duimpie with his 4.4kg Miss Lucy Dave Duncan on Tintin won the game fishing section, getting R7,500. The best angler was Flakkie de Villiers from Kenton-on-Sea, who caught four species, winning himself R3,000 and a rod and reel. “It was a species competition, and anglers were only allowed to weigh in one fish per SLIPPERY ONE: Albert Kolver had to get a grip on his 5.05kg kob at weigh-in Pictures: JON HOUZET species. We don’t want to purge the ocean,” Fryer said. “A few guys didn’t get it and we had to explain the rules to them, but the bulk of the guys went for species. “There were 12 species that could be caught and there were minimum weights.” NEW VENUE FOR FUNCTIONS: The Volo Function and Conference Venue in Kenton-on-Sea offers a fully equipped intimate venue for small to medium sizes groups of 70 to 100 people New development at The Volo Since Eugene and Ruleen de Witt started refurbishing The Volo in June 2018, a lot has been achieved in the interest of enhancing the customer experience.
