Trailblazers 2024
JAN - MAR| ISSUE 9 36
The trails have started
blazing again as we
kicked off our year with
the Troutbeck trail run
in February. We had
a successful signup,
participating alongside
Triathlon Zimbabwe,
exploring beautiful
mountains and Nyanga
scenery on a family
weekend away, being
with friends and making
memories.
As a community based group, we are
encouraging trail runners of all levels, to
get together and share the one love we all have,
and that is to be out in the countryside, taking
in the surroundings, soaking up the peaceful
environment, running with friends and making
new ones along the way too. As some say, with
the calorie intake that is encouraged, it can also
be called “picnics in the mountains”. What a
beautiful way to spend our weekends, escaping
the craziness of city life, exploring trails and
going on adventures.
Up next on our calendar we have some trails
planned out at Hippo Pools. This is a fantastic
weekend to attend if you are new to trail running
as the routes are clearly colour coded and marked
throughout the route to assist navigation. We
look forward to welcoming those who have
registered for this event. Please remember we
always encourage safety, nutrition, hydration
and good navigation skills for all our events.
For the first time in Zimbabwe, we bring to you
an exciting new event that is taking place on
the 6th April , called the “Backyard Ultra”. This
will be happening in the beautiful Gosho Park,
Marondera, amongst the beautiful wildlife and
msasa trees so we encourage you to join in on
