Frans Hosea judged his race to perfection to win the Aqua Splash Xtrail at Avis Dam on Sunday.

Hosea covered the 11,5km off road run in an excellent time of 44 minutes 16 seconds to finish 16 seconds ahead of Simon Shipingana and Jason Nghinanamunhu who crossed the finish line in the same time.

The 11.5km Aqua Splash race took place on a combination of footpaths, cattle paths and river bed.  The race was tough with some long hard climbs and near the end the participants had to endure a 1km run in river sand.  

Wanderers and Reho Falcons continued to set the pace at the top of the MTC Premier League with crushing victories over the weekend.

In Rehoboth, Reho Falcon also gave a dominant display as they ran in seven tries to beat Unam 55-21. The results saw both teams collecting maximum points as they remained tied at the top of the log on 44 points each, although Wanderers lead the log on points difference.
