Brief summary of the race:

9 starting teams of 2
3 didn't make cut off and descended Leslies pass (overall cut off was 100 hours)
1 team had an injury and descended Judge pass to Injisuthi
5 teams finished, the winners being Colin van den Bergh and Matt Bouch in 63h53, and the 5th team in 93h25

It was very wet up there (misty and underfoot) but not as much rain as originally forecast, although the last 2 teams got caught in quite a big storm on Friday night

Hi Guys.
Don't know if i've missed it somewhere. Was just wondering, is anyone still keeping an updated list of FKT attempts and times for the DGT? I did see a list on the Drakensberg hikes website for the top 10 FKT's and wanted to see if this list was correct.
Many Thanks
