The first of the Woest Hill Handicap Series took place last week, with close to 40 runners and cyclists tackling the steep 3.5km hill climb.
Grahamstown's top cyclists got to the top of the climb minutes before the top local runners.
The handicap system ensures anyone can win and a series winner will be the most improved over the four races.
The next Woest Hill Handicap Series is scheduled to take place on 16 April.
The event starts at 5.30pm from the bottom of Woest Hill (on the Southwell Road).
The series is organised by Run/Walk For Life Athletics Club together with Saints and Sinners Cycling Club.
