On Saturday, 30 September 2017 the Freshpak Fitness Festival is back for its 31st annual edition in Clanwilliam. This momentous fitness fiesta invites all sportsmen and sportswomen to join the grueling fitness challenges that will be pushing up their heart rates (and charging their adrenalin) with various sporting activities in this stunning region.
Whether you’re a runner, swimmer or cyclist (or all three!) there’s something for you to enjoy. Take it as seriously as you want – or as your training programme dictates – by competing with other participants, or just against your own best times.
WHAT TO EXPECT AT THE 2017 FRESHPAK FITNESS FESTIVAL IN CLANWILLIAM
SWIM: The festival kicks off with either a 1.5km or a 3km swim in the stunning Clanwilliam Dam. The dam is said to be one of the best water-sport destinations in the entire Western Cape. The water will be warmer than you think, and what a refreshing way to start your morning!
DUATHLON: After the swim, the Duathlon continues with a 5km run, a 20km cycle and a 2.5km run. This one will really get your heart pumping, and contestants will be pushed to the limit over various types of terrain.
BIATHLON: The biathlon will see competitors tackle a 5km run and a 20km cycle. This event is for those who prefer to get their fitness fix on land!
TRIATHLON: The Freshpak Fitness Festival Triathlon, for many people, marks the start of triathlon season in the Western Cape. This triathlon is a sprint triathlon that includes an 800m swim, a 20km cycle and a 5km run. This event can be entered as an individual or in a team.
FITKIDS CHALLENGE: The younger kids can get excited for their very own challenge which includes a 1km run, a 200m swim and another 1km run.
RUN FOR FUN: For those of you who think a biathlon, duathlon and/are triathlon are all a little too hectic, the organisers have arranged a 1km fun run for you to join so that you’re not missing any of the sporting fun.
