The 8th annual Fedhealth Platinum Trail Run which will take place in the might of the Magaliesberg and the majestic Buffelspoort Dam on Sunday, August 29 has attracted the attention of Charne Bosman, the 2016 Comrades Marathon Champion and 2021 THIRSTI AFRICANX TRAILRUN Champion (in the mixed-team category).
“Claiming gold at the THIRSTI AFRICANX TRAILRUN in March this year was one of my running career highlights,” confirmed Charne, who is a member of the Murray & Roberts Running Club.
“It was so much more than what I expected. The event made me realise just how different trail running is to road running. I got to see places that I would never get to see if it wasn’t for the event. I just love where each route took us. With trail running you’re treated to amazing scenery and feel so close to nature. Running trail definitely benefits my road running.”
The 2021 Fedhealth Platinum Trail Run Long Route (+-24km) boasts a R22 000 prize purse. To view the prize purse breakdown visit [https://www.stillwatersports.com/fedhealth-magalies-monster-platinum-trail-run-prize-purse/].
