    The Buco Kowie Striders hosted the Annual Pineapple Run between the Big Pineapple and the Port Alfred Country Club on Saturday 6 October, in the blistering heat. With a 27 km walk and run, as well as a 10 km run, the day was filled with fun, exercise and a lot of sweat. The Striders have been hosting the event for the past 27 years, and this year proved to be another successful race, with a large group of runners coming out to Smash the 2018 Pineapple Run.
