Good Day, Some people may have not revecied this email and we are also including some added infomation. RACE BREIFING WILL TAKE PLACE VIRTUALLY ON WEDNESDAY AT 18H00 MORE INFORMATION WILL BE PROVIDED ON THE PURE ADVENTURES FACEBOOK PAGE
When you drive into Moolmanshoek and stare at the mountain range that you are about to challenge, you are sure to get a turn in the stomach kind of feeling. THIS IS NORMAL!!
Just a reminder that Moolmanshoek Private Game Reserve charges a conservation fee of R75 per person (for the weekend) on entering the reserve. This fee goes towards to the conservation and upkeep of the roads and grounds
There will be a 10KM trail run & kiddies run in addition to the 4 Peaks Mountain run.
The 10KM trail run adds an event that is not for the hardcore athletes but allows an introduction to trail running in a true nature reserve. The 10KM route is marked and will have 1 water point on the route. 
We will not be having any spectators on route this year due to the current regulations.
Sportraxs will be providing the timing via their timing system. This will update the athlete's position at every checkpoint and can be followed on a website or mobile phone in real-time. Follow us on Facebook, www.facebook.com/pureadventures or on Twitter @pureadventures #4peaks. 
A compulsory kit check will take place and once your kit has been checked you will receive a ticket that you have to carry on the route. Only athletes that have the compulsory kit referred to below will be allowed to enter the start pen and start the event.
IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE COMPULSORY GEAR IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE IMAGE, YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO START. IF YOU ARE KIT CHECKED ON ROUTE WITHOUT THE COMPULSORY GEAR YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED.
This is for your own safety as well as for your co-athletes and our safety. All fluids and food needs to be carried by the athlete and nothing may be placed with the Marshals or placed on the Mountain to be collected on route. What goes up with you must come down. PLEASE Don’t litter!!!
We will not be having any spectators on route this year due to the current regulations. Your
runner will be disqualified.
All athletes that have not made High Ridge by 10h30 am, 4 ½ hours after the start, will be redirected down the mountain and home. The 2nd part of this epic challenge is remote and more technical and it is in the interest of all athletes’ safety that this has been requested of us!
Friday 24th September
Saturday 25th September
Sunday 26th September
We will have a cash bar at the Race Village to carbo-load pre-event or share war stories post-event.
ATTENTION!!! Please be very very careful on the road to Moolmanshoek between Senekal and Rosendal, and after Ficksburg (if you are coming from the other side). Once you turn off after Senekal/Ficksburg we recommend not driving faster than an average of 30-40km/hr. The potholes are dangerous and are on both sides of the road, there are parts where you will have to drive in the oncoming lane. Not only are the potholes deep, big and dangerous, but hitting one sounds (and feels) expensive, regardless of what car you are in. Rather safe than sorry, guys. Please be alert and cautious.
Moolmanshoek is situated in the district of Ficksburg, Eastern Free State, South Africa. Within viewing distance of Visierskerf (2407m) the third highest mountain range in SA.

GPS Reading from the car park in front of the lodge: 28 37’58 S 27 59’56 E
