Had our grading today. It went pretty well and i double graded, went up two levels at once. Pretty intense as ur under pressure with the judges watching you as you do everything. Aslo alot of high intensity stuff with basically no rest. Way too many push ups and such for my liking but i managed. Finished with a board break which i got first time with a kick

Event: Gauteng Mountain Marathon Championships
 

The yearly tough one know as the mountain marathon. Took course two which is the offical course for my age group and not the longer course. Woke up this morning with a streaming nose so i think with the run up to jwoc it was better to take it a little easier. Had a pretty decent run. Physically i am not quiet there yet and the monstor hills in the mohales area cause alot of walking up the hills. Came first for the course but did not beat the predicted winning time. Probably lost about 7 min due to mistakes and 1 due to a misplaced control. One route choice was not the best but i was confident that my choices were the best for the rest. The course was not to technical despite a few tough legs. The open area really helps to judge ur possition, that said with the faulty compass i was using the hills were hard to distinguish.
