The single most significant upgrade you can do to your computer today is to upgrade your old hard-drive to a new, high tech, super-fast SSD hard-drive. These drives have no moving parts, are 4-10x quicker than their old mechanical, spinning predecessors, use less power (extends laptop battery time) and are extremely reliable. We will source the new SSD drive for you, install it and clone (copy) your old hard-drive contents over to your new SSD. We also provide you with a USB case for your old hard-drive which now makes it an external hard-drive with an exact clone of all your computer’s data, you can then store this in a separate, safe place away from your computer. For an extra fee we will then periodically update this backup drive, this is a highly recommended practice to ensure data is not lost in the event of theft, fire or electronic failure.

Welcome to the Topolino Spring Trail Run! This year we will be doing things a little differently so that we can enjoy the wonderful West Coast, it’s spring flowers and the crisp fresh air while still practicing social distancing and staying safe.
You have a choice of the short 3km Daisy Dash in the open veld above Topolino Pre-Primary or the more challenging 8.5km Green Mamba Spring Run traversing some of the most beautiful trails that our town has to offer. You will have a whole week in which to complete the run of your choice AND you may run the route that you have entered for as many times as you wish, because you’re: (a) a sucker for punishment, (b) got horribly lost the last time out, (c) wish to improve your time or (d) it was too cold for the flowers to open so you want to go back when it’s sunny to enjoy the flowers! Whatever your reason, you may repeat your run and post a new time if it is quicker than your previous time.
So here’s how it works: you enter and pay for the route of your choice by putting the correct entry fee inside an envelope. Write your name, contact details and distance you are running on the envelope. Pop your envelope into the entry box at the Topolino Pre-Primary school entrance gate near the start. You have from sunrise on Monday 31st August to sunset on Sunday 6th September 2020 to complete your run.
Or you can choose the family discount option of R80 for the whole family for the long route only.
The courses are not marked but there are several Check Points (CP) that you must find and take note of. The locations and pics of each CP appear in the video and maps below. You need to record your time on your watch or phone, then submit your time (picture of your watch or screenshot of your phone) to be included in the Leaderboard that will be updated daily.
Please familiarise yourself with the route using the info provided below. The map, pictures and captions detail the route, this is the intended and most direct route, taking in the best of the flowers on offer. If you cannot follow the route exactly, so long as you make your way to each Check Point then you will be deemed to have completed the full route. The distance, if you stick to the intended route, is approx. 8.5km’s
Start your run (don’t forget to start your watch/phone) next to the big Topolino Preprimary sign located at the bottom of the gravel road adjacent to Topolino Premiary School. This is also the finish and you need to stop your watch at this point. Please send your details (Name, Age Gender, Distance if you have GPS and Time) via WhatsApp to 063 854 7113 so you can be added to the leaderboard. You can just click the “Submit your time…” button at bottom right of screen to do this…
