Ran the Middelburg Parkrun. Rural farm setting with heavy morning mist created a great atmosphere. Lovely route, with a smooth lawnmower track cut through fields for the full 5km. Route passed a few nice dams and through a small forest as well. Started well upfront and passed the leading kids just before 1km. Then focused on extending the lead slowly. 3km downhill followed by 2km back up to the finish. One of the kids put in a big effort to catch me just after 4km but I found another gear to keep the gap big enough to avoid an end sprint.

35 parkruns at 28 venues now, and 3rd win.

Control site tagging at Ngodwana and Nooitgedacht for next weeks O-Ringen about 18km in total. Did one set of controls on Nooitgedacht East hill top at jogging pace.
