#TipsFromTheTrail: #KeepingYourCool How do you keep your body at a comfortable temperature in different weather conditions? Share your top tips in the comments section to help our #2019Karkloof100 runners stay warm and keep their cool:
#MeetTheAthlete - Paul Norman, taking on his first #KK100. "Why would any sane person want to run 100 miles non-stop? To me, it’s about stepping up to the next challenge - 'If it doesn’t scare you, you aren’t dreaming big enough'."

Camp Davis is a double water point, hosted by TrailLab at the @LesothoUltra. Situated on a saddle, near a high point of over 3000m, 50km runners will pass us twice. See you at @MalibaLodge & on the mountain! Photos: @AdventureLifeSA • • • • #trailrunning #trailrunner

After a successful weekend at Skyrun, it’s back to work. Never fear, we still have mountains in our sight. This weekend, we head to the Maluti Mountains for the @LesothoUltra, where we will be hosting participants at Camp Davis! Photos: @AdventureLifeSA/@TVrugtman #trail

The ‘halfway point’ of #SkyRun features at 60km & is in a remote cave known as Baloch Cave. The TrailLab crew will be there to welcome everyone with a smile & help out our TrailLabbers! Photos: @AdventureLifeSA/@TVrugtman • • #trailrunning #ultrarunning #runhappy #marathon

Features that make this route special; the start, topping out at Avoca, the Dragons Back & the Wall, to name 3. You will experience highs on some of this section & lows on others. Just keep those feet moving! Photos: @AdventureLifeSA /@TVrugtman #trailrunning #ultrarunning

The #SkyRun is a beast! The combination of distance, altitude, weather and route choice easily make this Ultra one of the toughest in the world. TrailLab will be there to support a number of our crew. Will we see you there? Image: @AdventureLifeSA /@TVrugtman #trailrunner

It’s big race season & we have 3 weeks of races coming up. Where will we see you? At #Skyrun and @LesothoUltra we will be there to support you & cheer you on! Jack Davis, will take on the 100km @UltratrailCape! Photos: @AdventureLifeSA #trailrunning #ultrarunning #trailrun

Trail-trains, Shaka and cold beers are exactly what the Cape trails expect! What a fantastic weekend out on route exploring and experiencing what we can do before @UltratrailCT! • • • • • #trailrunning #trailrunner #ultrarunning #trailrun #ultrarunner #mountainrunning @

It's just two & a half weeks to SkyRun, TrailLab has toe-ed the line more than 6 times. Nothing quite feels the same as those 4 am start line nerves. Will you be taking on #SkyrRun2018? We hope to see you there! Photos: @Adventurelifesa • • • #ultrarunning #mountainrun
