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\u2019t for the event. I just love where each route took us. With trail running you\u2019re treated to amazing scenery and feel so close to nature.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRunning trail definitely benefits my road running,\u201d continues Bosman. \u201cI feel so much stronger on the road now. After AFRICANX I had to enter the Fedhealth Platinum Trail Run. One of the biggest reasons is that both events are organized by Stillwater Sports and after what I experienced at AFRICANX, the Fedhealth Platinum Trail Run is guaranteed to be another great event that I don\u2019t want to miss out on. I will definitely take a competitive approach to the event and am really looking forward to seeing where the route will take us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>EVENT INFORMATION: Fedhealth Platinum Trail Run<\/p>\n<p>Date: Sunday 29 August 2021<br \/>Venue (start &amp; finish): ATKV Buffelspoort<\/p>\n<p>Distances &amp; Entry Fee:<br \/>Long \/ +-24km \/ R350.00<br \/>Short \/ +-12km \/ R250.00<br \/>Fun Run \/ +-8km \/ R150.00<br \/>Kids \/ 2.5km \/ R100.00<\/p>\n<p>All trail runners (including the Kids Event) will receive an official technical event t-shirt, and medals will be awarded to all finishers.<\/p>\n<p>PRIZE PURSE: The 2021 Fedhealth Platinum Trail Run Long Route (+-24km) boasts a R22 000 Prize Purse.
