#RETTO2020 RACE DAY 🔥🙌🏻 The #BloukransBoogie ... this is without a doubt the seminal moment of @otterafricantrailrun. The racers dread Bloukrans and you can see it in their facial expressions as they approach the leap of faith into the wild surge pounding in from the tempestuous Indian Ocean. . . These are just a few images from today's incredible race, showing the front of the field hitting the water. Loads more imagery to follow - stay tuned to all the #OtterTrailRun #SM platforms 👍🏻 . . #Retto2020 #trailrunning #Wesgro #gardenroute #nationalparks #guenergy #sonyalpha #sonyafrica #sony // All images shot on @sonyalphasa #A7riii (at Plett Beacon House) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHA48JGJUYm/?igshid=151v0x196biia

Emotions ... The Victors & the Vanquished. Triumph and Tragedy. Elation & Exhaustion. Competition & Camaraderie ... Legends and myths unfold every year along the tempestuous #gardenroute coastline during the running of the exhilarating @otterafricantrailrun ... This year will be no different, and I'm as nervous as the first time I shot this amazing #trailrun more than a decade ago! 🌊⛰️🌲🍃 As always, I cannot wait to be part of the kickass crew put together by @magneticsouth_events, a truly world-class event organization. And kudos to each and every athlete lining up to take on this epic #trail challenge. Bring it on. #Bloukrans is waiting! 🙌🏻 💚🙏💙 #ottertrailrun #trailrunning #salomonrunning #salomonsa #grailoftrail #gardenroute #nationalparks #goldentrailseries #guenergy #LiveU #sonyalpha #sonyafrica #sony // All images shot on @sonyalphasa #A7riii 🙌 (at Otter African Trail Run) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3ZUmdnpVga/?igshid=f5wvt5gu0k5

#TBT to #ottertrailrun 2018 Just over a month away and I’m lining up for a 5th & one last time! Those who know me understand the passion I have for this race. Running the Otter was what got me onto this amazing trail running journey 9 years ago in the first place! I dream about regularly! I get nightmares about it even more! But the love, respect, memories & passion I have for this piece of trail far outweighs any disappointments I’ve had on it! In 2018 I left a piece of my soul on the rocks between Stormriver Mouth & Ncubu Hut in search of my Sub-6! It will forever be there, and this year I’ll take strength from it as I run on by! 📸 Jeff Ayliffe https://www.instagram.com/p/B2BBBfyJzo4/?igshid=19fyq0myxccze

Taking it right to the edge on a shoot with @salomon_sa #trailrunner @Megmackenzie1. Currently one of the top runners in #southafrica, she has her sights set firmly on the #ottertrailrun podium. #sony #carlzeisslenses #photography
