Fifty runs till May - Week #11 - Semi-desert sheep country (not a white Christmas)!

Firstly, MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE, from a place which is the opposite of a snowy landscape!

This is my eleventh post for the challenge set my @theaustrianguy to make sure we keep running: #fiftyrunstillmay. I've done three runs this week... one in Stellenbosch and the other two on the Keiskie farm in Calvinia, South Africa.

My first was on Monday, just a quick flat run to stretch the legs and relax after a tough day at work. Exploring a single track or two next to the Eersterivier (aka First River).

My next two runs were on the Keiskie farm, where #extremejoggging originated! The farm is situated 20km from the little town of Calvinia in the Northern Cape of South Africa. The area is classified as a semi-desert and is super dry. The landscapes on the farm is insane and you can see nothing for kilometers.

Here are some of my favourite photos from this week...

Keep exploring!

Wow, beautiful landscape, I would love to take my bike there! Only a few runs of 2017 left to go, best go for an early morning one on Christmas Day!

Thanks... I like the way you think. ;)
