I was really content having local adventures in the Jonkershoek mountains on my doorstep. I can hit trail straight away and climb through lush, foliage-packed gorges on to rocky ridgelines above. I didn’t really miss racing that much…

Outstanding few days of training out in Iceland with @edjackson8 and Darren Edwards, preparing for our big expedition in April. Conditions were “interesting”, with 77 km/h winds on day one. Train hard, fight easy! @TheRealBerghaus@coldhouse_
Robyn Owen went to university in Stellenbosch to study civil engineering after school. The canoeing wasn’t quite so good on the doorstep, so she began to run more often…
