Day 8 of the 24 Days of Pain was a really heart warming day filled with giving back to those in need and then a Personal Best up Lions Head!!
If you watch my vlog below, you’ll see that I kicked my day off by heading into town to go take photos of strangers for my #365PortraitsOfStrangers project that I have been doing this entire year, but this time I went looking for those less fortunate people that live on the street so I could give them some lunch.
My first stop was the Engen in Gardens so I could get them a Woolies Pie and an ice cold 500ml Coke. After leaving there, it didn’t take long to see a few homeless people sitting close to the Garden Center, which is where I met Silas, Johnson and David!
This is part of a campaign I am doing with Ricoh, who are the folks that make Pentax Camera’s and they are actually giving away a Pentax k-5 ii DSLR with a 18-135 WR lens valued at R20,000! Read more about the campaign!
After that, I went home, had some lunch and then made my way up Lions Head again for some PAIN! I recorded a PB of 26 minutes to the top, which has been my best time yet since getting back into fitness again!
Watch the vlog for all the time-lapses I did at the top as well as myself and Carlinn putting up the Christmas Tree in our apartment when the power went out.
